Ya, but he's a cocky son of a bitch. I read an article this week about some no name Aussie on tour saying everybody hates him since he's such a jerk. Probably need to take that with a grain of salt....but after those comments he made about Weir at the '03 Masters he'll be in my bad books forever.

I think at least 3 of those (if not all 4) were by one stroke too.
He's had at least 2 seasons when he posted the low aggregate score in all 4 majors combined (but didn't win any of them).
A handful of strokes here and there over his career and he could have half a dozen majors. That's saying something in the Tiger-era.
Tiger Woods
Major starts - 42 (not including US amateur)
Wins - 10
Second - 2
Third - 3
Total top 10 finishes - 20
Tiger is obviously a much better closer, and some his major wins were run aways, but on a percentage basis based on top ten finishes:
Tiger - 48%
Phil - 42%
Pretty close, and pretty damn impressive.

WHO REALLY CARES HOW MANY TIMES YOU WERE CLOSE, WHAT MAKES YOU GREAT IS HOW MANY YOU WIN AND HOW MANY ARE MAJORS THATS WHAT SEPARATES THE GUYS WHO ARE GREAT FROM GUYS LIKE PHIL....LOL
I THINK TIGER IS GREAT NOT BECAUSE HE'S COME CLOSE 48% OF THE TIME BUT BECAUSE HE'S WON WHAT IS IT 5 OR 6 MAJORS NOW???
The thing to remember in all of this is that as bad as Phil wants to win, that's not what drives him. Everyone has their own place, and for Phil it's family and outside interests. Agree or not, golf does not define who he is. It's for this exact reason that he takes a lot of time off, doesn't play much overseas.
I respect the fact that he lives a low key life, drinks his beer and likes to do things like the rest of us.

WHEN YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT A REAL GOLFER AND NOT A JOKE LIKE PHIL LEMME KNOW
Give me a name. Tiger? Jack? Arnold? Who would you like to discuss / debate. I have no problem having an intelligent debate on the sport. We don't have to agree on things, but I think it's a little short sighted to discount someone just because they have only won 2 majors (Phil) It's obvious you're not a fan, and that's fine. But to discount his talent is not a fair assesment.

I've watched Phil over the years and sorry but IMO he's just not up there in my opinion with some of the other great golfers of his time because when it has matter most(WINNING Majors) he's shown he's more a loser than a winner.....I'm sure he's not the only one but with all the hype he gets in comparison to an Goosen or Els(maybe Els is pushing it he gets nuff respect) he deserves this ribbing cause guys with hype like that win when it mattersand he doesn't...........i.e Tiger and Vijay in the last lil while 2 seasons or so(he's always been up there but he's left skid marks on the competition over these past seasons) but it looks like tigers coming back to take over the thrown again, these guys do it
NIKE BABY WOOHOO!
