all the picks i made are debeatable - i just don't think anyone ever had a better mindset for the whole game than jack and i don't think anyway was a better driver of the golf ball the greg norman - woods included

Woods driver would definately not be one of his strengths.. sure he can hit it a mile but until the past few weeks you could count on missing tons of fairways. His iron play, short game, putting and mental toughness are as good as anyones.. and his mind and jacks mind are very similar.... Woods grew up wanting to be Jack.

Jack would never miss an important putt on 18... now Woods is in that same catagory.

Last year should have never gone to a playoff... all Rocco had to do was make birdie on the par 5 18th.. where people could make birdie left and right.. to put the match away. He misses (not too many people have the balls to be able to sink a very important putt) and gives Woods the opportunity, which you knew he wasnt going to let pass by.

I was just thinking of the '02 PGA where Rich Beem made about 27 or so 30 footers to beat Tiger Woods. That was awesome.

it was , but , he was not playing with tiger that day mano a mano

to me the may/woods 18 holes + playoff was a epic battle that hasn't been topped , even last year's open
