Tiger Hitting Shots that Prove He is the Greatest Ever 

No doubt. In the HISTORY of golf, nobody could have done better. Really? You have seen EVERY shot EVER in golf? Har, har, har.

How cool.

Johnny Sins might have something to say about that

My great grand uncle landed in a coma from getting a golf ball in the head somewhere in Florida in the early 80's, and died later in hospital, and that ball probably had half the speed of the one Tiger binked there.

@@jeffreygreer There's no way. Look at Tigers short game and putting. There's no one who touches it in any era. Then look at his recovery game and shot making. If you took one year of Tigers career, and showed the great recovery shots he hit, it would be better than any other golfer over a career. He also hits Irons clutch. I don't think Jack in his prime could stare down Tiger in his prime. Jack doesn't hit as good of Irons as Tiger does when it's clutch time. Tiger comes out ahead for me. Who cares if they're playing with wooden clubs or anything else. Tiger can bounce a ball in the air and then hit it straight out of the air if he wants. He has the best hand-eye coordination and would likely benefit if the clubs were less forgiving. He's the only player on tour who even uses blades still (which is the very least forgiving of all irons). Also Tiger is much stronger than Jack so what he can do out of the rough would dominate Jack.

@@jeffreygreer Tiger would have been great in every era. Even the legends you name say that so just stop.

Hopefully his son has developed a far better character and makes better life choices..

you are correct how stupefying his masters win was !!! the 2 losers on sunday had the most birdies going into the final round BUT NEITHER ONE COULD DROP 1 BIRDIE ALL DAY (ROSIE AND RORY) and tiger didnt even roar on 18th just smirked when he picked up his ball but alas his last major

Tiger is tied for most wins All- Time with 82. He spent 683 weeks at No.#1 in the world.

He won 6 consecutive times in 2000. He won 4 majors in a row in 2000-2001. Lowest PGA Scoring Average- 68.17 in 2000. And he had the largest margin of victory in a major, 15 strokes 2000 US Open. That's more than just some "selected shots", but if you factor in those selected shots, and there are dozens of them over many years, the argument can be made that he's the best to ever tee it up.

He was winning tournaments at almost a 50% rate for a 4 yr period playing in only the top events.

@@CSpad The fact that I led with the names with Ben Hogan and Sam Snead means I do know Jack Shitt about the game, far more than you. That list has 77 majors among it.

Jack had the mental game. Jack simply never made a mistake. Jack hit driver better, Jack was longer and straighter taking equipment into things. Jack was as good a putter as Tiger on his best day. Ben Hogan, a man that knew more about golf than anyone ever summed up Jack after the last round of the 1960 U S. Open. "I just played with a kid that would have won this thing by 10 strokes if he had any brains." That was a 20 year old Jack Nicklaus who came in second to Arnold Palmer and found plenty of brains the next couple of years. Try again duffer. Jack= GOAT.

Not sure why you want to throw stones at Tiger. Truth is Tigers record is actually pretty close and regardless of his record he is one of the best to ever play the game. Yes we always see Jack and Arnolds names up there at the top and for good reason, they too are a couple of the greatest to play the game. Let us not forget about the others who played and dominated in the sport. Sam Snead, not just a great golfer in his time but also a WWI veteran. Ben Hogan, quite a few wins and and Army veteran. How about Tom Watson? Another great who is still out there. Tiger Woods might never beat Jacks record and that is ok. It has nothing to do with his personal life or drama off the course. Actually the media should learn to let people have their personal lives. Comparing balls and clubs is pointless, every player on the course used the same balls and clubs or had the opportunity to use the best during that time. I started out using wooded woods as a child I got from my Uncle. At the time they were the best, today they are antique and my TaylorMade driver puts that old wooden driver to shame. But back then it is what everyone else had so it was a fair game. Lots of great golfers out there, Jason Day, Rory, Dustin, Jordan, Phil..... The list goes on. None of them are perfect. Point is Tiger is and will always be in the top 5 of Golfers and he earned that.

@@johncollier9354 Not throwing stones at Tiger. Just tired of the modern press, who have never seen Jack play, annoint Tiger as the greatest player ever when, in reality, as I stated previously in the Majors, Jack’s is far superior. Tiger’s short game is far superior to Jack’s as is his art of hitting escape shots. Don’t misunderstand me, Tiger has been my favorite golfer for years and his skills are exceeded by none, but he is not the greatest golfer of all time. That title belongs to Mr Nicklaus, until at such time someone breaks his Major Record of 18 victories.

@@AlmightyBeezy You’re right. Tiger was dominant against the inferior class of his opponents. Just look at the number of majors won by Player, Watson, Trevino vs Michelson, Els etc. Comparing the level of competition is a joke to say nothing of the fact that Nicklaus accomplished his career while raising a family and actually making that his number 1 priority. Tiger probably has more skills as a golfer but Jack has way more skills as a human being!

@@kerrythomas6220 if Tiger had played in as many majors, he would have easily took this record. 70+ more times out, that’s like 15 years more of majors lol. Jack played WAYYYY more golf and only has him by 3, and doesn’t have NEARLY as many total wins. This stat sheet is about golf, not personal life outside

had he not lost those 5 years with the first accident and everything else that followed, I believe he would have shattered Jack nicklaus's record. But you just can't account for life sometimes

At their respective peaks, Tiger was better. Nicklaus is the Babe Ruth of golf, but there was always something mythical about Tiger. Something electric. He’s the Roy Hobbs of golf. In his prime, you could almost hear the distant echo of thunder rumbling when he had the lead on Sunday. Best golfer that ever walked planet earth.

It was this way for Jack but in Jacks playing days didn't have the social coverage like ESPN when he played

Tiger had no weaknesses in his game. Jack was never a great putter.

@@wecanjump7512 lol u dont win without being a great putter

No way is he top 3.He has the # 2 spot all sewn up.
