Who's your money on this year?
Also a question would anyone disagree that jack nicklaus is the best golfer we have seen as in he had solid quality competition rather being miles ahead he slugged out the victories and clearly today his majors and masters records stand to date without challange will we ever see someone meet his results or was he just supreme

Has the BBC lost some coverage? They only seem to be advertising the final two rounds on live terrestrial coverage?
The best, yep I'd go with Nicklaus, Woods came close but has gone of the rails recently and had injuries that stopped him before the current/latest issues, Seve and Faldo could have came close but Seve was too emotional to be consistent enough and Faldo too consistently average not enough magic. If Woods dominates for another 5 year spell it could change though. The only other I'd chuck in to the ring to would be Watson.
There are greats like Player, Palmer & Travino etc that I never got to see in their prime but would have thought they'd be knocking on the door of the all time great club.

I think the BBC coverage is only at the weekend as I'm going to be streaming it at silly o'clock out here. Sky has the rest of it in HD and 3D...
For me it's Nicklaus, followed by (and in no order) Player, Hogan and Bobby Jones. Jones for what he achieved as an amateur, and for achieving the only true Grand Slam. Woods is a disgrace to the game for his on course antics alone (something Jones learned early in his career).
For me, this year, Mickelson is looking great, and will be bounding off the back of his win this weekend where he was imperious. I hope we'll see another European win, either Westwood or Kaymer, with maybe Villegas as an outside choice for me. It wouldn't surprise me to see Couples doing his bit for the Senior's tour by mounting a strong charge either.

But what exactly is wrong with Tigers game? Is there an obvious technical fault with his swing or is it just a mental thing?
Combination of both but he's lost that invincability he had before and the players now believe they can beat him.Westwood will never win the Masters!

I don't know a great deal about golf, just tend to watch the final round of a couple of majors each year.

and he's changed his swinh some months back and had surgery on his knee, he's a fantastic golfer to watch, talented and could overtake Nicklaus...... but I think his heads gone and he acts like a petulant child when something goes wrong...... also needs to learn some mannersBut what exactly is wrong with Tigers game?
