A great pity Montgomerie never managed to pick up the Majors of which he was undoubtedly more than capable...

...if this had have been the situation, I strongly suspect Monty might have been hovering somewhere around this list, too.

With all due respect to the ancient legends of the game -- Tom Morris, old and young, Willie Anderson, the Great Triumvirate of Vardon, Braid, and Taylor -- I think any attempt to rate the greatest pl

I think it's an incredibly hard question to answer because of that variances between the different generations.  Specifically, the equipment and quality of competition.  That being said, I think there

Not sure what's happened in the past decade (or so) that would lead to Jose Maria Olazabal or Tom Watson making this list.

He should be in the top 4 at least. I'd have him in second place - for this particular timeframe I mean.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
