Originally posted by doghouse View PostJust a thought. Did Jack face the same equivalent competition in his glory years?
But, Jack played against some of the best ever in Arnie, Trevino, Watson, Johnny Miller, Weiskopf, etc. Jack only had to beat 7-8 guys in most majors.
I heard one talking head say that Tiger was the best player of all time and that Jack was the best champion of all time. In Tiger's prime, nobody has ever played the game better nor had so complete an array of golf skills.
Jack has 18 professional majors (and 2 US amateurs which were considered majors at the time). Tiger has 15 professional majors (and 3 US amateurs). So, if Tiger wins three more majors the conversation is over, imo.
But, until then Jack Nicklaus is the man.Last edited by El General; 04-15-2019, 04:35 PM.

The vast majority of white America adores this man. The haters hate because he was so dominant for so long.....not because of his skin color.

I care, I think he is the best golfer that ever played and did more for the sport than anyone. Some people just can't stand for others to do well. Some people just hate winners. Some don't like Nick Saben because he is a winner. I just love it when people say Tiger is finished and will never win another major! How does that crow taste?

Originally posted by curtintex View PostJack's top 7 competitors won 40 majors and 250+ tournaments and are all in the HOF...that's just the Top 7. I have another theory if you'll indulge me. While Tiger's competitors are likely just as gifted, I don't think today's players have the same heart for a simple reason....the insane amount of money that the guy finishing second, fifth or twentieth wins. Guys back then battled each other for victories. Today, if you finish second, you still win a **** King's ransom.
Another argument for Jack being the GOAT is the fact that he not only did he win 18 Majors, but he finished 2nd in 19 other Majors....Woods finish second 6 times. Jack was TOP THREE in 48 Majors....Woods in 24.
I can't argue with anyone that thinks Woods is the GOAT, he's **** hard to critique, but I can sure plead a case for Jack.

Originally posted by Marco View PostTotally agree with you on Jack but Tiger changed the face of golf FOREVER. Jack never did that.
Sports are dynamic. Stats are static. Save the GOAT talk.
The tee shot on sixteen was enough for this hater to tip my beer.
Let's give some props up to his girlfriend. She's found a way to keep his head focused.
