PA-PLAYA It causes me to appreciate what @Par4QC said in the third post of the thread when he opined, And that makes him just as good as the next guy; not the Tiger of 10 yrs. ago......the next guy. Quite capable of winning any tournament. Same as......the next guy. Not sure why everyone keeps expecting to see 'that guy' from 10 yrs. ago. Gone. 10 yrs. ago.(I think
)
Very astute observation by one of our very own.
Been saying this very thing for years. What plays a role and IMO a more significant role is that there are guys who hit it longer, straighter, and have better up and down ability now vs. when Tiger was in his prime (ie competition way better). He was that guy, and very clearly better than everyone else, now there are a handful of guys, maybe more. If we could transplant that guy in today's game it truly would be a marvel to watch vs. the new guys, who are simply following the old TW mold.
