Tiger Woods will NEVER win another major

He's 37 with 8 more solid years left. Top 5 in the masters and 4 wins this year on tour. Oh yeah he's the number golfer in the world. I think he's fine.

Nobody asked if you were sexually attracted to him. But I suppose if you think he is fine feel free to go ahead and tell the world.

When "good tiger" shows up he is still effective enough to win majors. Its just that these days when "bad tiger" shows up he plays himself out of tournaments in one round or less. Is this oversimplifying it? Sure, to some degree. He isn't as consistently excellent as he used to be. That being said I think he has a great shot at the Open next month.

If you end up being correct, this will go down as one of the greatest predictions of all time.

You may be right. I have definitely noticed the shattered confidence in Tiger the last several years. I certainly wish Tiger could get it going again - it was fun to watch, and though I'm a fan of golf in general, it adds a lot when Tiger is playing well. My dream would be for Tiger to get it back and for a Palmer or Watson or Player-esque rival to appear.

I'm not familiar with the Bjorn comparison you make. In your opinion, is there any way for Tiger to get the confidence back? Or once gone, it's gone? How about enough mojo to put it together for one more major?

Obviously your bet is on zero majors. If you had to give odds, what would you say for: a) at least one more major; and b) breaking Jack's record?

0 for 7

"bad tiger" didn't show up today. "awful tiger" showed up today. disappointing. hopefully he will perform better on sunday next month at oak hill. I'll be there.

the streak continues...21 majors in a row

Tiger choked plain and simple. As he often does now.

The issue Tiger is dealing with is a physiological one of shame. Shame that everyone now knows how he cheated on his wife and is a douche bag. Subconsciously he feels he does not deserve to beat Jack's major record. Still the most talented golfer on the planet and he may win another major, but will not break Jack's record

You do realize that earlier in the thread you also predicted Phil would also never win another major.

You will NEVER overcome your LRC reputation as a douchebag.

You do realize that most people don't give a goat's nut what happened, right? They would judge for like 2 seconds and then go on with their day. Not even my parents. Why? Self interest.

Woods can still get there (to Nicklaus' record) but it may take longer than a few years. He has 2 issues that are keeping him from winning majors. First, he doesn't putt as well as he used to, especially short putts, which he never missed in the past. Second, his name on the leader board was worth a few shots just in intimidation. I think other players feared him. I don't think that's the case now. He's still a very good player, just not dominant.

He's in contention so often that he will win more majors. He just might be in his 40's when he gets to Nicklaus' record.

If he does break the record, he will absolutely be in his 40s, since he's definitely not going to win 5 of the next 9 Majors that will be contested while he's still in his 30s.

I remember when people said Phil would NEVER win a major.

I'll easily take a $10k bet on Tiger winning another major. He had a bad slump but he's back in good form. Even in good form, it is extremely difficult to win a major.

I don't really like Tiger that much. He has that Lance type cockiness, but its foolish to think he won't win another. I would not take him against the field in any single major, but I'll take him against the field over 20 majors.

When Tiger loses, he's an Asian.

I do not think that Phil will ever win another major for entirely different reasons than Tiger. Phil is simply no longer good enough. Tiger is a much better player at this time (as he has been for virtually all of the last however many years). Tiger is also more than five years younger than Phil - a huge advantage at this point in giving Tiger more of a shot than Phil to win a major again.

Hmmmmm...
