that is true he biased

my guess is if golf digest asked all the tour caddies or other players to vote just on talent it would come out

tiger 50%
phil - 45%
other 5%

I would guess 100% of the tour caddies would agree that you and Scuds are INSANE.

here is a chance for anti-trust and bigs to vote on a talent/better situation

we all know who the better player is between myself and gpk - that one does not even have to go to a vote , i will never play in tournaments that he has already won and forgotten about but as far as hitting the from tee to green (not getting the ball into the hole) who do you think can hit more shots can play more shots - high hooks , low fades , driver over the corner of a dogleg to cut a fairway in half , punch wedges , buried sand shots , flop shots - now isn't the decision a littler harder after you saw us both play?

Kev hadnt played in a long while. it was like 6 in the morning and we were all hungover... & starting to drink again.

I can safely say three things:

You hit it longer than Kevin

Kevin is more talented

We all had a blast and should do it again.

my point in relation to phil and tiger is, you didn't have to think about the better part between me and kev , but the talent part you had to think about it evaluate it, it wasn't an automatic decison

that's fine , that's your opinion

i know i can hit shots that he can't hit , and there are shots that he can hit that i can't hit

if a group of people off of this board watched the 2 of us hit shots (not score), just hit all kinds of different shots and vote - i can guarantee you that the un-biased voting would not have me at 0% to 100% for gpk for talent

and if we took that same group of un-biased off this board people and said to take a look at our playing resumes - i know i would be at 0% and gpk would be at 100%

the 1st part is subjective to the eye and can be debated , the second part is cold hard and factual - it's the results/ the hardware

The scenario you are referring to is impossible to judge either of us from.

This was what you said.

If you seriously think that you can hit more shots or play more shots than me....well, I don't know what to say.

If u don't think I can hit high hooks, low fades, punch wedges, buried sand shots or flop shots....well again, I don't know what to say.

You do realize that the one round we played together, I was less than 1 year removed from back surgery that had me layed up for 2 months? I was maybe playing my 4th or 5th round of golf in a 16 month span??

again i never said better , but if you took 100 people and asked them to vote , some of them may not know a thing about golf at all , i might get a few votes just based on distance and distance alone

i am admitting i need 6 shots , and , i am willing to play you with 6 shots whenever you would like. i myself an stuck behind a computer 10 hrs a day at work and play 1x a week so i won't have my "A" game either

So what you are saying is that Phil is more talented on the reasoning that a bunch of people who know nothing about golf might think he was based on a few shots?

some people who are non-golfers may come to the conclusion that phil is more talented based on what the see on the course or on tv

i personally think phil has as much if not more talent than tiger

tiger has the abiltiy to hit all the shots under the biggest circumstances , today phil missed 2 putts on 15 and 17 that tiger never misses when he is tied for the lead or has the lead and NEEDS to make the putt - that is not talent , that is heart and all heart - he has the biggest heart in the majors when it counts , do you really think that if glover was tied with woods with 4 holes to play that woods would not have won?

you watch AM works scott , there are some horses that can do it in the AM as good if not better than some stakes horses and then they go across the street in the afternoon and they can't run a lick - why is that , the talent is there but maybe the heart is lacking when they get in the gate with 8 others?

I have to give props to both Ricky, and Duval. They both held it together much better than I thought they would. I thought Ricky would shoot about 81, or 82 in the 4th round. I thought Duval would shoot about a 75. Considering their results over the last 5-7 years,$559k is a lot of money for either of them to be making on this tour.

Im not saying you ever said better. You just talked about being able to hit more shots and play more shots.

you think you can hit more and play more shots than me?

me personally no , you are a pro , but if you take 100 people off the side of the road some may be golfers some may not be golfers , and i hit shots and you hit shots -- will i really get no votes at all ,zero votes do you really believe that?

if you showed those same people results from tournaments , and you asked them to vote based on our results in those tournaments , there is no way i could ever get a vote , not 1 , not even a 1/2 a vote

Actually, no I don't. I have had a 180 degree turn around in my opinion of him. Life has a funny way of doing that sometimes.

I think it would have been fantastic if he had won. Don't get me wrong Scuds, I think Phil is immensley talented. I have had the fortune of seeing them both play and practice in person...and in my opinion, Phil is not the most talented.
