There's only one King - records made with inferior equipment I might add!
But, the competition of those days was not near what it is today either (I don't believe)

DJ is one of my favorites, he's a very humble guy, met him twice, once at the colonial and once at a Taylormade Clinic, he is the most raw skill/talent and surprisingly one of the best work ethics on tour
Watch out for the name Ollie Schniederjans in the coming years, he will be a fan favorite and a top 10 golfer, hes Jordan spieths age but comes from a strong amateur background....
If sleeping with tour players wives and doing a bunch of drugs is humble, I now see why your such a Tiger fanboy. I will say it again, I am a tiger fan but it's ridiculous to not think Tiger is affected by his turmoil. I agree with above poster that he pulls out for back spasms whenever he is scoring poorly. Anyone can act like their back hurts when they swing. I hope he comes back and starts winning again.

Arnie's one of the greatest too, but also one of the BEST PEOPLE. His social impact can't be touched or measured.
Playing fields have been level for players in respect to their generation/time of play. Sure, some new record low rounds are posted each year by both men and women. Technology has improved equipment while the courses have also been made longer and more difficult.

Originally posted by LWC View PostMost all golfers have injuries. Some very serious and still come back and win Majors - ask Ben Hogan. Injuries are a part of Tiger's problems but they aren't his Major problem. It is his mental game that he has lost. He could will the ball into the hole and make mortal men break under the pressure. That is gone now. I hope he gets it back here and there and makes a couple more runs. But it is hard to get it back when he and his playing partners know that he is not superman anymore. Jack got it back for a weekend when he was 46. Tom Watson almost did in his late 50's. Time will tell.

Originally posted by ghostgoblin22 View Postyeah ben Hogan was healthy again when he won late in his career, so did tom Watson, so was jack, tigers back is gone, if he can get completely healthy he will win again, confidence has a lot to do with being healthy, if you're not healthy every golfer will say it destroys your confidence. Think clearly people

Originally posted by adam_p View PostAnd much weaker fields of players, and much shorter courses.
Jack could smash it 345 yards with PERSIMMON, STEEL, LEATHER and BALATA. He did it one time, at a PGA event...during the days, each PGA Event had a long drive contest. He only did it one time and smacked it 345 down the middle, won the long drive...and never did it again. It wasn't Jack's style.
We must remember, when Jack won the 1986 Masters @ 46 years old, he played against a new field of talent. And he also played against some of the top 20 golfers of all time, who in their own right, have set records beyond the new crowd now.
And then he went into the PGA Seniors Tour - and continued to smash them over 50 years old.
So let's see if Tiger can make a cut at 50 plus?
Trevino, Player & Palmer continued to smoke them in the Senior tour events past 50.
Watson
Snead
Hogan
Trevino
Player
Palmer
Floyd
Casper
Ballesteros
Miller
Faldo
Norman
Just to name a few.Last edited by AtTheWall; 02-16-2017, 10:48 AM.
