This is just NOT true..............


Jack's competition compares to modern day men's tennis. Three men (Nadal, Federer, Djoka) basically win all of the slams.

But in golf's, there's been +12 different major winners in the last few years and over 20 different major winners the last 10 years.

If TW only had (Harrington, Mickelson, Vijay, and Els) to worry about, he'd be over 20 majors now. He beat those guys regularly.

But his close misses in the majors (where he finished 2nd) happened against lower ranked players.

2009 PGA - Yang
2008 Masters - Immelman
2007 Master - Zach Johnson
2007 US Open - Cabrera
2005 US Open - Michael Campbell
2002 PGA - Beem

The depth of the field is what makes TW wins even more remarkable. The +50th ranked player can and do win majors in golf.

FINE. That
just proves my point that TIGER is nowhere NEAR the golfer compared to Jack........ If it was that easy TIGER would have 30 majors by now..........

Look at the list of major winners from 1962-1980 and tell me you know more than 12 golfers.
