It's 18 Majors, and until the Tiger worship took hold, the GOAT in golf was {and still is}measured by major victories.
I appreciate Tiger's talent, but until he ties Jack at 18, then Nicklaus is #1 and Tiger is second best.
If Tiger ties him in majors and since he has more regular season victories, he will be the undisputed number 1.
The term, 'unmatched talent' is an opinion, major victories is an 'unmatched fact'.
Only a liberal will argue an opinion over a real fact.
Best ever...opinion.
I was a 10 handicap and if given 10 strokes I could compete with our club champ who was a scratch golfer.
I never believed that I was as good as the champ, even when I beat him three in a row.
Isn't that the purpose of a handicap?
