The man may actually have the most wins in each major and most total, oh and most total PGA tour wins. HMMM..... The best ever... YUP!

tiger will pass sam by 2014 and jack by 2010....just my opinion.

Tiger has 20 more total wins and 8 more major wins than Phil Mickelson, and Phil has been around 6 or 7 years more than Tiger?

He needs 33 more wins to pass Sam Snead and Tiger being only 30, should have that record by the time he is 40, if he continues to play at least 12-14 tournaments a year.

What I saw yesterday gave me goose bumps. My favorite athlete by far in professional sports, ever.

Tiger gets the Majors record within 6 years I say

and gets Sam Snead in 10 years

I think he'll win at least 8 in the next 5 years and that will get-er done. He may have a year where he wins none, maybe a year he only wins 1, but there will be a year in there where he wins 3. At least 2 years where he wins 2. JMO

Tiger will double his total before he is done. 22 majors.

Bump, 70 wins:tro:

Damn herk, thought someone started another thread about me:rolleyes:

See shortest golfer EVER thread.....:eek:

More importantly, how in the hell did he remember this thread existed?






Hope all is good Kev.

He really needs to get to 89 to pass Kathy Whitworth for most pro wins.

Should happen within the next few years if Tiger can stay healthy.

The major number will probably be harder for him to beat than the overall win total.

:mad:
:tro:

No kidding, guess Herk has no life:D

Everything good on this end Mike. Hope you and the girls are well.:tro:

:D you can find some real gems if you look at the old threads that "guests" are viewing. ;) A great way to kill time- I recommend it.

Just found this GPK gem:


My one thought for the day....

I continue to love Mountaineer and Balmoral Park. Without these two fine establishments, I think I would never cash a ticket.
