1. Tiger Woods Tiger Woods is the greatest golfer of all-time. No, he hasn't (at the time this is written) overtaken Sam Snead for the most PGA Tour wins ever; nor has he (at the time this written) eclipsed Jack Nicklaus' record for most majors. But those are artificial excuses cited by people who simply don't want Woods to be No. 1. Think about it: Snead has the most wins, but how many people say he's the best-ever? For decades, Walter Hagen had the second-most majors, but how many people placed him No. 2 all-time? The height of Woods' accomplishments - both in terms of numbers of wins per year, in the way he dominated tournaments, and in the way he dominated individual majors - make him, in my opinion (and you know what they say about opinions), not just the best-ever, but easily the No. 1 on this list. He also accomplished his many feats in the deepest, most-talented era in golf history. |
