are you kidding? funds would not equivalent greatness, fantastically while the single hundred and twenty 5th place golfer makes only shy of $a million million. Does that recommend he's greater valuable than Jack, and if so, why hasn't that guy gained any majors, or vast tournaments that Tiger did not enter? it relatively is unfair, to not point out belligerent, to evaluation golfing in the 60's to golfing in the 2000's. lower back in the 60's, the sole time you will see golfing on television exchange into the final few holes of the Masters, and specific the U. S. Open. in the present day, you may watch all 4 rounds of the Podunk venture! there have been no $3 million greenback handbags in the '60's, no tournaments backed by utilising Buick, Nissan, Valero, or whoever. the place do you think of the money to pay the golfers comes from? A funds tree? It comes from the sponsors. look in a e book on the old tournaments... what share golfing tourneys in the 60's had call sponsors? specific, Tiger's attractiveness to the trustworthy-climate fan (like your self) has pushed up the handbags for ALL expert golfers, besides the undeniable fact that it wasn't until then that the excursion found out that they had a conceivable product to compete against baseball and soccer. It exchange right into a 2nd activity to very just about all however the elite specialists in the 60's, or maybe then, they have been going around to distinctive direction putting on clinics or trick-shot competitions, just to make adequate to get by utilising. attributable to the hot television deals, it would not ought to be that way for excursion execs anymore. He!l, they could have it TOO stable. you ought to additionally think of Tony Romo's Cowboys ought to conquer Troy Aikman's Cowboys, simply by fact the Cowboys in the present day make further funds on typical? could the Yankees of this decade beat the Yankees with Babe Ruth, Joe DiMaggio and Mickey Mantle? the present Yankees for sure make further funds then the old Yanks, so it is going to be a no brainer, desirable? Too undesirable your good judgment is quite incorrect. bypass examine a historic previous e book. Or ten.

This is a very difficult question because of the times they played. But Jack would have more tournament victories but by the time he turned 30 he was very involved in golf course design and other business ventures. Because he could make more money doing that than playing on the tour. Prize money has changed a lot as well. Jack was also very involved with his family.
Do not misunderstand me. I think Tiger is very good and by the time he is finished this maybe a very easy question to answer!!

Yes, Tiger is on course to far surpass Jack in majors won and tournaments won. Also you have to realize that Tiger plays in a age where new technology evens out the field a lot more than in the past. So Tiger's dominance is much more impressive.

Hello
I think that Tiger and Jack are very close to the same talent. Tigers final records will be very close to Jacks .
Frankly I look for a slow down in Tigers carreer, sort of a slump which will take away from his overall.

The answer is no. I watched Jack play many pressure rounds. He, like Tiger made the other golfers fade/choke throughout his career. It is very hard to compare the two due to equipment changes. Something interesting is Jack's runner-up record. He may have the most 2nd place finishes in major golf history. Tiger may catch up one day....he is just not there yet.

I'd love to see Tiger play with a persimmon driver, wound blata balls and "low tech" irons. Nicklaus could hit the fairway consistently, something Tiger has trouble doing. I'd say they are about even with irons and wedges and Tiger may have a very slight edge in putting.

Tiger Woods will achieve more than Jack ever did in their careers. Due to Tiger's youth and experience. Think it is harder today to repeat victories. There are far more golfers today. Far more tourneys to play. We probably watching the greatest golfer in history. Since wins usually mark how good a golfer is....Tiger Woods is better.
