Jordan Spieth is solid
Spieth, Rory, Justin Thomas all have a CHANCE to be top 10 golfers ever, probably.
I don't know about Brooks. Hitting some injury problems, and will likely never be able to tally up enough overall wins because he doesn't care about anything but big tournaments (although he does have 4 majors).
DJ will probably end top 20 maybe? He'd have to really go on a tear in the next 10 years and rack up 2-3 more majors and 15-20 more wins in order to approach the top 10.

This but his nemesis was the PGA where Phil's is the US Open.

Plus he outdueled Nicklaus to win four of his majors (77 Masters, 77 Open, 81 Masters, and 82 U.S. Open). How many times did Phil outduel Tiger to win a major?

I believe he will but it would have helped him if he could have closed at least one of those U.S. Opens.

Top 10? Mickelson is a top 5 golfer of all-time.

There shouldn't be any doubt after number six.
Posted on 5/23/21 at 6:22 pm to Bonkers119
Yes

Probably, he’s very similar to Tom Watson IMO. 6 more wins, 2 fewer majors, more top 5 and top 10 finishes in majors.
Posted on 5/23/21 at 6:26 pm to Bench McElroy
He’s Top 10 now!!!!!
Posted on 5/23/21 at 6:26 pm to Bonkers119
Was before this and certainly after.

No he's not. He's now about 8th

Which of those above do you throw out to put Mickelson in?
Trevino. Same number of majors but Phil has 45 wins vs 29 for Lee.

Umm...
Woods
Nicklaus
Player
Hogan
Hagen
Not sure which one of those guys you bump out for Phil.
He’s on the Watson/Palmer level.

100%

I mean he ranks 12th all time in major wins (and would tied for 7th if he won one more) , and 8th all time in PGA wins, so it’s hard to not see him as a top-10 players, especially considering his career coincided with Tiger and all of those near misses in the one major he hasn’t won.

Oldest major winner has got to add to the resume.

Watson doesn't have any of Phil's personality. That shite matters. Arnie is so beloved bc of his personality combined with his wins.

There shouldn’t be any doubt now. Yes, Phil is top 10 ever.
