I’m not sure what Rory’s consecutive weeks were, but he was pretty close.
He dipped to 11 for a couple weeks in 2014, to 11-13ish in 2018, & down to 16 in 2021.

He still would have had to win a 3 person playoff.

I think it's probably Brooks. Majors are what matters most, and Brooks has 5 since 2014.

Rory and DJ both have two, so I wouldn't have an issue with someone going either way with those two guys depending on how much you value wins outside of majors and consistency of play.

Just a little bump, but I think it's safe to say now that we really haven't seen anybody be this good since Tiger. Scottie is on another level.

They were talking they other day how Scottie has been a full stroke better than 2014-2015 Spieth.

Crazy thing is he's still almost a full stroke behind 2000 Tiger

Dang

He wouldn't be prime Tiger but I'd imagine his stats would be even closer if he could putt. Crazy that he is this good for being such an average putter. His irons are all time good.
