Best Tiger article I've ever read!
http://www.golfonline.com/golfonline...5434-1,00.html

Some serious laughs in there. Great insight into the kind of person Tiger is on and off the course. Good read.

I get the magazine every month. I liked the part where Nike brings Tiger like 6 drivers to try out. After hitting all of them Tiger says I like the heavy one. The nike guys tell him thier all the same in wieght. Tiger says the one is heavier and he likes it. They take them all back and wiegh them and sure enough one is heavier..by about the difference of 2 cotton balls. lol Tigers the man!

It may be cliche and sentimental to say this, but I feel privileged to be alive in the time of Tiger. I value the things I've seen him accomplish, together with moments like Jack winning the '87 Masters, seeing the Apollo 11 liftoff in person, and being alive at the start of the computer age. Things like that help offset the negative of the world we live in.

I'll second the motion and say "thank God for Tiger."

Here, Here !

I just wish I had seen (live) Nicklaus' farewell to competitive golf at last year's Open...

Yeah, he is incredible.

Not just because he can play good shots, but because of his focus and commitment. It's hard to imagine how much time and effort he has put into his game to get to where he is now.

I think what amazes me about Tiger is how bad he still wants to win. He's got all the money ...won all the majors but you watch him play and he still looks hungry. like he's still looking for that first win.

At the 2000 Presidents Cup, Vijay Singh's caddie appeared on the first tee wearing a cap bearing the words "Tiger Who?"

Didn't know that at all. Madness...!

I ain't put any money on, folks. I bet you who I fancy all come in, too !

I would do Mick (although he or Tiger I feel are going to do it)

Luke Donald as Top European

Henrik Stenson as top rookie

Think that is all I would do......
