re: Jack Nicklaus Or Tiger Woods?

A lot of great posts. GOAT is very subjective. While Tigers overall stats are better except for majors, I'm still giving the nod to Jack by a very slim margin.

To me, GOAT is more than stats. I think Nicklaus has had a much greater impact on the game and still does today by simply being Jack Nicklaus. One poster stated that there would not be a Tiger had there not been a Jack.

I'm also a fan of Tiger and hopes he overtakes Jack's major record. I think having to endure a lengthy period of humility has been a good thing for Tiger. Like Jack in his time, golf is a better sport when Tiger is playing.

For me, one doesn't have to fail for the other to prevail.
