The problem is that nobody at that level in any other sport could possibly be worth £140million. There is too much money in golf.
How can a 30 year old, with that much money in the bank, stay hungry for success. What would make him put in the long lonely hours of practice? How motivated can someone like McIlroy be when - after another dismal failure in a big tournament - he can get on his private jet and go home to count the millions he will still make through sponsorship etc? The press still fawn all over him, so what's the incentive to get better.
Thats why I admire the likes of Roger Federer and Tiger Woods. In the face of adulation, success and money beyond their wildest dreams they retained that hunger (love/obsession) for their sport, and that is what makes them great.
Rory is ruined by his smaller measure of success.
That's a poor-ish comparison, the strength in depth per-sport is light years apart.
Rory (he's hyped because he's a consistent top 5 world ranker) started 10/1 favourite for this tournament, after one hole he was 200/1. Tiger Woods started 25/1 (even though he's an ATG who won The Masters this year), after a couple of holes he was 250/1. Phil Mickleson (another ATG who's won events this year) started 150/1 for this event.
Tennis is dominated by a tiny handful of players, hence 20 "major" titles for old men past their best, rated 2nd favourite for Wimbledon/US Open.

I believe he's the best player of all time (Tiger Woods). Because Nickolaus played at time when Woods would not have been allowed to play on golf courses and from 2000-2005. He took gold to a new level

Wrong. Charlie Sifford broke the color barrier in the PGA in '61 when Jack was still wet behind the ears.
Also, your perspective on who's the GOAT is severely impaired by your age. By the time you were born, Jack had already retired.
BTW..... it's Nicklaus.

I know this and Lee Elder too. Sifford broke the color bar ?
Where black people allowed into the all the tournaments in ? No. Where these whites own members club allowing black people in ? No. Did a black person have the same chance as being a pro golfer in 1961 as a white person ? No. Did black people have any type of muscle in the sport of golf ? No
That's breaking the color bar.

Jack Nicklaus was a great golfer. But Woods (At his best) was better. I don't even think that's controversial. Much better. I don't need to. You just don't like him because he was banging all these white women

Re: Tiger Woods chokes on a major YET AGAIN
If you're gonna talk.... talk intelligently. Take your racial bullshit to the 1000 other threads you've destroyed.
Jack Nicklaus is not only ahead of Woods in career majors won. But here's another statistic that is sure to boggle your racist brain:
Jack finished second in 19 majors. Woods is way off in the distance with 6.
Jack played against better competition than Woods in their primes.
Jack had to contend with: Gary Player (nine majors), Tom Watson (eight), Arnold Palmer (seven), Lee Trevino (six) and Seve Ballesteros (five)..... ALL Hall of Famers. Jack finished 2nd more than 10 times to players on that list.
Woods had to contend with Mickelson and Els during his prime and little else. His 2nd place finishes were to one-hit wonders like: Trevor Immelman, Zach Johnson, Rich Beem, Y.E. Yang and Michael Campbell.
Come to think of it..... maybe Woods IS a choker.
The stack of reasons is long..... but I've done my job here.
Go back to school little boy.

Look. Everyone knows Tiger (at his best) took the game to new levels. Way beyond that of Jack Nicklaus. In fact Golf back then wasn't taken as seriously.
The bottom line is. You put Jack Nicklaus (at his best) and Tiger Woods (at his best) over 18 holes.

Woods wins everytime

Re: Tiger Woods chokes on a major YET AGAIN
Golf equipment has changed a great deal since the days of The Golden Bear which is a big reason I find it difficult to compare the eras.
How far would golf's legends drive the ball using modern equipment?
https://www.pga.com/golf-instruction...dern-equipment
Nicklaus cranked a 341-yard blast to win the PGA Championship’s long drive competition in 1963 with the “old ball.”
Impressive
Anyway they're all exceptional golfers. I've always been unmoved by Tiger Woods but he is certainly a talent.

Actually, that's a fair point - it is a poor comparison. Tennis has the equivalent of Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods and Lew Hoad all playing right now at the same time. It is dominated by three guys completely, sonthe competitiveness in golf goes much much deeper. Maybe I used the analogy because somebody else was going on about tennis earlier in the thread.
I still do think McIlroy is overhyped, over rewarded and much less hungry than he was though.

If you can't tell the difference between 19 and 6 I'm afraid I can't help you. Just like 18 (wins) is better than 15..... and Tiger won't get there either.

I'll throw you some scraps and tell you I'm not saying Tiger is shit. He's very likely the 2nd best player in history. Just not good enough to be the GOAT. That spot is taken.

Nope.
White skin is seen as the default for all human beings in western culture. They control the government, they control the economy, and most importantly they have overwhelming control of the media. When you control the media, its your views that get pushed out to the masses. Even something like BET (Black Entertainment Television) is just white racial views of blacks acted out by black people and presented to a mostly black audience.

Guys from that side of the pond seem to do better at The Open than at the other major championships in golf. I'm sure a lot has to do with the familiarity with those golf courses. But good for Lowrey. :)
I was just happy to see Tiger was nowhere to be seen.
But back to Lowrey..... he won in impressive fashion. Six strokes over the guy in 2nd place. Today apparently was a brutal day on the course, with gusting winds and the like.

If you can't tell the difference between 19 and 6 I'm afraid I can't help you. Just like 18 (wins) is better than 15..... and Tiger won't get there either.

Subjective
More bullshit. See your weak-ass expanded answer below.

Once again. Subjective. None of them. Would do anything nowadays.
This is beyond weak. It's pathetic. I give you names and numbers..... you give me useless, idiotic rhetoric. Stick to topics you know something about, like...... well....... um.......

Look. Everyone knows Tiger (at his best) took the game to new levels. Way beyond that of Jack Nicklaus. In fact Golf back then wasn't taken as seriously.
Another gem for my collection..... thank you. :D "Golf back then wasn't taken as seriously." HAHAHAHA!!! I don't have to argue with you. You do a pretty good job yourself of looking like a moron.
The bottom line is. You put Jack Nicklaus (at his best) and Tiger Woods (at his best) over 18 holes.
Who would win ?
Woods wins everytime
Tiger himself has been quoted as saying "He's the greatest champion that's ever lived" when talking about Jack Nicklaus.
I'll throw you some scraps and tell you I'm not saying Tiger is shit. He's very likely the 2nd best player in history. Just not good enough to be the GOAT. That spot is taken.

I hate to be nit picky or anything but........................ shouldn't those hands be black?
Nope.
White skin is seen as the default for all human beings in western culture. They control the government, they control the economy, and most importantly they have overwhelming control of the media. When you control the media, its your views that get pushed out to the masses. Even something like BET (Black Entertainment Television) is just white racial views of blacks acted out by black people and presented to a mostly black audience.
Is African TV racist

Tiger Woods Corrects Dwyane Wade After Basketball Star Calls Him the GOAT: 'I'm Not There Yet'
No, Tiger. It's not "I'm not there yet." It's "No... I'll never catch the real GOAT in golf, Jack Nicklaus."

If it's taken a personal scandal, a slew of injuries, and a near fatal car crash for Tiger to obtain a bit of humility... then good for him. But his window of opportunity to truly become the GOAT in golf has thankfully closed. He'll always be #2.

I thought the same with Federer and Novak just kept on winning.

No, Tiger's best years are behind him. Plus now there are hungry, young golfers coming up that will prevent him from winning any other majors... let alone the 3 he would need to catch Nicklaus.
Maybe if Tiger's career had been uninterrupted... no question he would've blown the career majors mark out of the water.
But in the end, when stacking their career accomplishments against one another, there's no comparison.
The Golden Bear beats the Tiger in every way conceivable.
I was sad when Federer's career majors mark was caught (and will invariably be passed). But I'm happy Nicklaus's mark is alive and well... and will at least survive Tiger's challenge.

Tiger nearly dies and is making another comeback. He is incredible.

Re: Tiger Woods chokes on a major YET AGAIN
Yeah... he's incredible. But thank God for Scottie Scheffler... who's got what seems like an insurmountable lead going into the 3rd round and should keep Tiger from another major. :)

Tiger nearly had his leg amputated and is playing effectively on one leg.

Well... he crashed and burned in the last 2 rounds... but he's still formidable. Second only to the real GOAT of golf, Jack Nicklaus.

Re: Tiger Woods chokes on a major YET AGAIN
Now that the LIV Tour exists, it pretty much invalidates any PGA major tournament win any golfer might get. Reason being some pro golfers have defected over to the other side. So PGA winners aren't playing against the best playing field.
That sucks for Tiger Woods, who is stuck at 15 career major wins, 3 behind golf GOAT Jack Nicklaus.
Not that it matters anyway. In today's 1st round of the British Open, one of PGA's major tournaments, Tiger struggled home with a 6 over par... tied for 146th, and way the hell back from the 1st round leaders.
So while it's commendable that Tiger came back from life-threatening injuries to be playing major golf, he's no longer a threat to the Golden Bear.
Nice.

He's old (47), and honestly has never fully recovered from his car accident a couple of years ago. I suspect he'll retire in the "not-so-distant" future... and join the Senior Tour like most other professional golfers do.
To me he'll always be 2nd best, to the true GOAT of golf... Jack Nicklaus.
But Tiger's been one of the all-time greats. No denying that.

Jon Rahm did not look in great shape and won. :)
Rory McIlroy has not won an Open for ages and never won the Masters. He is useless.

Re: Tiger Woods chokes on a major YET AGAIN
Phil Mickelson TIED FOR SECOND??
Damn... the guy's 52 years old. I mean... I know golf isn't exactly a strenuous sport. But still... Mickelson coming THAT close at that age is truly remarkable. To me, he's one of the ATG's of golfing.
Pretty likable guy, too... unlike Tiger.

No just joking but frustrated with him. He seems content with not winning the majors.
