Par4QC imo, no one will ever dominate the PGA again.

I think there will still be dominant players, but they only come along every generation or so. They will also have to be lucky enough to have 1 or 2 rivals as good as they are to compete against. Jones had Walter Hagen and Gene Sarazen. Hogan had Snead and Nelson. Jack had Arnold, then Miller, Weiskopf, Trevino, and Watson. Tiger had Phil, among others. Unfortunately right now, we seem to be in a lull. But I think another super star will come along....it's just a question of "who" and "how long" we'll have to wait to see him emerge.

      fatshot but they only come along every generation or so.

      TW is in his mid 40's. Time has passed for 'that guy' to show his face. Everyone is jumping on DJ's wagon, but this will pass. I do give him the credit of being 'closest' to the throne, but he'll never be able to keep it up.

      From the very beginning of his career, I said Rickie was wayyy over hyped. I've been proven correct a helluva a lot more than not. Even Cobra sees it now; he's no longer 'the face'.

        Players like Tiger and Jack are an anomaly. We’re just going to go back to a handful of good players ((Brooks and DJ,) a tier just below them (Hovland , Thomas, Reed)and then everyone else.

        Back to the 1980's with Norman, Watson, Stewart... no standouts, just a handful of good players etc...

        IMO, one of the things that Tiger showed was the amount of personal sacrifice it took to be dominant.
        Golf was 24/7 for him.
        I don't believe any of the youngsters are interested in being loners, having broken families or the media dogging them.
        There's enough money to be made for one to be comfortable without winning much and little enough stress to allow them to be able to enjoy it. I don't blame any of them either.

          That's just it. That guy is death on toast personality wise. Almost all of them are. I like Koepka, and his story is fascinating. There's just zero charisma.

          Tiger just had an aura. You loved to hate him or you loved him. No matter. There was just something there that isn't even registering with any of these guys. Bubba was brought up and he has some of that aura, but he's a fart in the wind on tour.

          Golf needs a Happy Gilmore figure, or somebody with a pulse. It's a flat line on an EKG right now. Fun guys surely golf because I see some real characters here.

              Earl used to say only two things could derail his son... Marriage or Injury.

              Even wise old Earl couldn't see that it would be both. Injury via marriage.

                  I always have enjoyed Phil. The excitement in the thrills and spills of his career have fascinated me. No one else to me has wanting to see every shot he takes. He will add some spark to the Champions Tour, so recording that will be a must.
                  Jordan Speith is now the guy I want to watch and succeed. He brings grit, emotion and some excitement to the game. Hopefully, he is back contending every week now.

                    sdandrea1 Golf and loose women were 24/7 for him.

                    He was still playing holes...

                    I also forgot about his career as a Navy Seal.
                    Sorry about the technicalities regarding 24/7.
