    I’m not sure I’ve seen a guy miss that many fairways and still shoot 6 under for the day. And let’s not forget, he had two putts lip out and had another hang on the edge of the cup. But Koepka pulled it together when he needed to.

    Tigers not as intimidating as he was in his prime. Players would fold around him down the stretch. And he always seemed to pull off whatever he needed to to win. Harder to do that as you age.

    3 major titles in the last 7 tries, that is special in itself.

    The leader hasn't even been shown the past 5 holes. It's as if only 1 player matters.
    If you think competitive athletes like this, you don't understand how they function.
    Still, great effort by Elmo Woods.

    Pretty clear your problem is with Woods, not the attention he draws. Probably be different with you if he wasn’t black...

    It’s embarrassing that golf has so many young stars, one of which just won his third major out of the last seven, and all everyone can talk about it Tiger Woods. That’s not good for the game of golf.

    He is still a super star and It's just a matter of time before he is truly back to his former self. He is the only golfer you can't count out if he is within striking distance on Sunday. I wouldn't bet against him.

    Pretty clear to me you're an idiot disguised as a person.

    His last win in a major was 10 years ago.

    Jack won a Masters at 46. I won't be surprised if Tiger wins again, but he will never be THE dominant player again.

    Agreed. He’s in some great company since Arnie did it back in 1960/61. Tiger and Jack have done it multiple times. Trevino, Watson and Faldo have done it too.

    Hard to believe Player never did it and he had 9 majors. Neither did Seve or Phil.

    Surprisingly, the last golfer to do it was Padraig Harrington in 07/08.

    His last finish in the top two was a few hours ago.

    Jordan Spieth won The Masters and US Open in 2015 and finished 2nd in The PGA that year. It looked like he was the next true great but he has proved he doesn't have the consistency of Jack and Tiger.
