Not necessarily because of this, but I wish there were more athletes like Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, etc. around. They were classy guys who played their game the right way and not in a "look at me" way. Those guys are a dying breed.

Eldrick Tont Woods, founder of #Smash and father of #Nitro, will get to 19. #GoldenBear confirms.

Tiger's not too old for it to be a possibility.

And Jack, of all people, can understand the work required to get to 14 majors.
So, I'd imagine there's a level of respect and admiration amongst the greatest to play the game.

Besides, what's there to gain by saying the record's safe? Nothing.

Regardless if Tiger catches Jack's number of victories or not.....
Jack's number of finishes in the top 3 in majors is safer than Dimaggio's hit record.
Personally, I think Snead's record is in more jeopardy than Jack's.

Snead's is gonna be broken. A foregone conclusion. Hell, he could do it within the next year or two.

Deep down, Jack knows the record is safe. He's just keeping it classy.

ETA: As long as Tiger keeps Sean Foley as his coach, he will never reach Jack's record.

What don't you like about Sean, from a technical standpoint?

That he's too technical. To me he is 100x's worse than Ledbetter when it comes to that. It also shows on the course with how inconsistent his players/students are 120 yards and in. Tiger went from being the absolute best at that range to average since going to Foley. Also, the 'Dip & Rip' is a load of shite.

Assuming tiger loses his #1 ranking after the masters, do you guys think he will ever regain that title?
