Cruzer 1,993 Posted August 2, 2018 Shell's Wonderful World of Golf was one of the greatest golf exhibitions ever. Although this is a far cry from it, I will prolly still watch...

Cruzer 1,993 Posted August 2, 2018 Even tried to get paid for the Ryder Cup. Even more disgraceful than what he did to his wife. We finally kicked ass and won the Cup last time around, w/out him.......... I want him no where near this team (as a player) this time around either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbfalcon 824 Posted August 2, 2018 I wonder what their under the table cut will be............. Bcoz I have a hard time believing TW will show up and do anything for free. Based on what they were both saying a few weeks back........Tiger and Phil are looking to set this up in such a way that they are the owners of the production. They also implied there could be future events possible even with other players, yet Tiger and Phil own the production. That made me think they will both make money off the event, advertising, etc. But then they'll play for $10M, which will likely be put up by a sponsor.

Cruzer 1,993 Posted August 2, 2018 But he was the best assistant captain of all time. True. Totally fine with him as a coach, water boy, cheer squad - whatever... Long as he's not playing and taking a spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
listen2me 23 1,583 Posted August 2, 2018 Tiger is playing better than all of them right now? Based on the Open Championship plus today's round? Not sure I agree with that. As good pretty much with more upside. I mean are you really counting early tourneys getting back into golf as much as recent play? We will see what he does here this week. But if it is basically a coin flip between Tiger and these guys based on play then you go Tiger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

listen2me 23 1,583 Posted August 3, 2018 No, Im pretty much just talking Masters forward...I guess. The 2 best on that list Webb has 6 top 10s out of 19 tries Dechambeau has 7 out of 20 tries Tiger has 4 out of 12 tries. Roughly the same % on contending. One of the 3 was workng himself back from what 1200th ranked in the world and in the gutter? One is a top 2 player ever. I mean if you want to split hairs and go by stats then sure. But I think it is some of your Tiger hate coming out. Tiger has had a reasonable year even compared to guys who didnt take years off. If its close I lean perhaps the GOAT. Maybe im crazy.

Fumbleweed 451 Posted August 3, 2018 Not sure where youre getting Tiger hate from...Tiger played well at the Valspar and fairly well at the Open. Aside from that, hes been solid, but not spectacular. Webb won the Players. DeChambeau won the Memorial. Two of the biggest tourneys on U.S soil. I never said he shouldnt be on the Ryder Cup team. I was simply stating that I thought a couple of those guys noted have been better in the last four months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was simply stating that I thought a couple of those guys noted have been better in the last four months. Maybe not hate but I understand you and Cruz (among the golf guys) dont care for him. Just figure that has something to do with it. Yeah the other 2 won a tourney. But also played more and were not in the middle of a brutal comeback. I know mostly from KSB but Tiger always goes higher than those 2 in your drafts. I think going forward most would take tiger in any tourney over them 2 or at least on par with them. Obviously Tiger has had trouble finishing rounds and tourneys, but I feel he is still getting better. He has contended right along with most of these guys. We have time to see what he does here and in the PGA so I guess to be continued. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
