    Some of these young guys can compete with him I think. I hope its Anthony Kim. I really like this kid. He has a little flare for the dramatic in him too.
    Like so many great young talents Anthony Kim needs to grow up. Where Tiger was mature way beyond his years, and was a top-notch professional right from the start, Kim is 180 degrees his opposite. Out partying all the time, drinking and missing practice rounds/showing up late.

    Maybe he'll grow up soon, but if you don't like Woods' personality, you sure wouldn't like Kim's. Actually, I take that back. Kim is a "fun" guy. Probably everyone around him likes being around him, but he doesn't take his work as serious as Woods.

    If he had the drive that Woods does, Kim has all the talent in the world, and could certainly compete with Woods.

    Why? Because he lives up to the hype? He doesnt talk shit or create the drama.....the media does. He just goes out and wins.

    Ballesteros and Norman could not hold Tiger's bag. Period.

    He is a once in a generation player and anyone who is a fan of golf or sports in general should take notice.

    John Daly is twice the man Tiger is.

    Oh yeah. He "EXCELLS".

    If it were not for sponsor exemptions and the morbid infatuation with the trainwreck, he wold not get into a tourney.

    Just another example of how golf isnt a sport. If you can smoke, and drink while doing it, its a game.

    Too bad smoking and drinking aint a pro sport. You would make people forget about Tiger Woods.

    I new guys who would trip on Acid while playing defensive back in High School football, does that disqualify Football as a sport?

    But tiger for excitement and talent - everytime you think he has an impossible shot - the dude pulls one out of his ass

    Although I like to root for the underdog - so i seldom root for tiger to actually win

    There are a lot of athletes who have the talent to be great.

    There are a lot of athletes who have the drive to be great.

    But very few have both.

    Every once in a while, there's an athlete that comes along that has incredible talent and unbelievable drive. Jordan was a rail-skinny kid who could score at will in the lane, but people dogged his defense. So he bulked up and honed himself into an All-NBA defender. Then he was a one man show only, so he hooked up with Phil Jackson, bought into the team concept and changed his game. Then his knees started to go so he developed an unstoppable fall-away jumper. He turned Scottie Pippen into an all-time great as well, and an even better defender than Jordan himself. He ground some players to dust and sharpened the games of the rest, so that when he needed a shot made, he knew Pax or Kerr had the will to make the shot. He hated to lose at golf, or cribbage, or tiddlywinks, and bought a pool table and practiced in all his spare time when one teammate housed him at a game of billiards once. He punched other players in practice.

    Jordan hated to lose more than you loved to win, and that's why he beat you. Great talent, and unstoppable will. Dominique Wilkins was as talented as Jordan, just not as driven. Drexler too. There were plenty of guys with game, they just didn't have Jordan's will.

    Golf is the same with Tiger. Players wilt with him in the field. Other guys take years to come back from knee surgery. Tiger had a top-10 finish and a win in starts #2 and #3 back from it. He was unstoppable as a young phenom, but didn't like Harmon taking credit for his swing, so he rebuilt it from the ground up just to spite him. It cost him victories in the interim, but nobody takes credit for Tiger. He fired his caddy for talking about him to the media. He keeps his friends close and everyone else outside the gates, like Jordan. You will never know him through the media, and that's the way he wants it. He's a control freak - everything that can be controlled will be controlled, and more than you think can be controlled.

    He curses on the golf course. He throws clubs and tantrums. But that focuses him. His very next shot after chucking his club after playing out of a sandtrap? A tough 12 foot putt for par to save a stroke and eventually win this tourney.

    Phil's in better shape this year, and there are some golfers out there that aren't afraid of Tiger and so might be able to take him in tournaments down the road. But Tiger's gonna take more than his fair share, because he always does, and because he simply will not be denied for long.

    *shrugs* He's the greatest golfer that ever lived, and he proves it every time he steps out on a golf course. You don't have to like him, but you should appreciate him.

    Any time you're watching the greatest to ever play, you should appreciate it. It just doesn't come around that often.
