Tiger's dad was quoted by one of the snortscasters on the Open coverage as saying that Tiger's best golf hasn't been seen yet. "Kinda scary," said the snortscaster.
As for a clean, sober John Daly...I don't think he's that hot a player sober, frankly. Alcohol removed his inhibitions and he simply strode up and took the shot. Now, he ANALYZES. Daly's game doesn't work its best when he analyzes. Oddly, he isn't nearly as accurate as he was, and not as much fun to watch, either. I'm certainly NOT suggesting that he return to "spirited" rounds of golf - just making the observation that, while he's cleaned up his dependency problem (good), its departure HAS taken away some of the color we used to enjoy watching.
Phil Mickelson is one of the best non-putters on the PGA Tour. When he DOES put well, it's early in a tournament. He's destined to be one very very very very good golfer. But I don't see him as being one of the greats. We'd have seen that greatness by now. If you haven't gotten it by your 30's, you're not likely to. To me, he'll always be a Bridesmaid golfer.
