Will there ever be a golfer better than Tiger Woods..?

Question

i dont think anyone will ever top what he's done.

Thoughts?

Answer 1

Tiger, Jack, there are plenty of amazing golfers. I would love to have been alive to see Bobby Jones. Remember that this guy created the idea of a single season grand slam. Jack and Tiger are amazing by record. Bobby Jones is legendary because of how and what he did. Let's remember there was no jet, there was no plane, you took busses and boats. There weren't all of these events. You didn't have the amazing technology of today or of Jack's day. If it isn't Bobby Jones it could even be Byron Nelson. Byron made everyone look silly. The shots he hit were so straight and his ball striking was so far superior to anyone to have ever played the game that they named the swing machine used to test golf clubs after HIM! The Iron Byron!!! Man, I wish I was alive then to see these players play then. Ben Hogan? with the clubs of today these players would make sport of today's fields.

Answer 2

If you are talking about yourself, then no, but if you are talking about me, well thats another story!

Answer 3

Someone will, yes. As the expression goes.."There's always a faster gun."

Answer 4

with technology getting better every day i thank so

Answer 5

Records are made to be broken.

Answer 6

a few days ago i thought we had agreed on it being Darcy Tucker, if my memory serves me right

Answer 7

Yes, but also remember Tiger is not the greatest golfer YET.  A guy named Jack Nicklaus has that distinction.

Answer 8

yes alla the way

Answer 9

I cant agree to much with the "clubs of today" statement.  Back then courses were much shorter than todays championship courses.  and i have to believe that todays golfers could use old equipment and still kick any of our butts.   your question is impossible to answer..he may be the best, he may not...he has more competition that the old guys did...this is like asking who would win between boxers of different eras...you cant compare them because todays technology and environment are completely different

Answer 10

Yes, maybe not in your eyes but every generation has a guy that they look as being the best ever.  A lot of it is based on perspective and what you see playing rather than hearing stories about and seeing old footage.

Answer 11

There is a fellow named Jack Nicklaus who had a mighty impressive record. Until Tiger Woods surpasses his accomplishments, he is only second best or maybe third. Sam Snead has to be considered for his ability.

Answer 12

yes easily. technology will get better and better.

kids will start seriously younger and younger.

did people think someone would be betteer

than arnold palmer? no, but tiger came by
