For as much "inside info" you have in the golf world, your knowledge sure doesn't show on the msb

but no need to single out Tiger


yea okay, why single out arguably the best golfer of all time?

it's awesome for one of those guys to be able to say they finished higher than Tiger in a major, stop trying to discount the accomplishment

anyone who has played enough golf knows that anything can happen in a given tournament on a given week. If I were one of these 5 I'd certainly be bragging about it, but none of them made the cut and none were playing heads up with him.

Why is that? Because you have no clue what you are talking about?

It's not just some tournament. It's a freaking major. Where these 20 guys probably couldn't even pull the club back for the entire first round. This isn't the brec championship.

exactly, I would brag about it back at the home club, but I certainly wouldn't be under the illusion that I went head to head with Tiger and "won". Some number of club pros score better than accomplished touring pros in every PGA. Their "accomplishment" is much more about what Tiger shot vs. what they shot.

Who said anyone went head to head? The point is they beat Tiger. 2nd best golfer of all time.

I don't know how you could come to this conclusion. You are just choosing to view it this way. There's no reason to see it like that.

relatively speaking, they shot what the top club pros score every year, Tiger's missed 4 cuts in majors in his career. And since they weren't playing head-to-head, this anecdote is much more due to the way Tiger played than the way these 5 played. What they did is cool, no doubt, but it's something you brag about at the bar, nothing more, nothing less...

I also forgot to share that I understand what the OP is saying. When I was like 13 I beat a NCAA runner-up and recent web.com tourney winner. I still brag about it
