Nobody has dominated this sport like Tiger!

  1. Yes, but he has a real shot at his consecutive weeks streak at 281. Two years might seem ambitious, but with the way the OWGR points work and Scottie’s recent string of wins, he has the next year all but wrapped up and probably the week after unless he doesn’t play and someone else goes on a similar run of success.

    The WGR are dumb. There was a year when Tiger was injured and barely played. He still retained the #1 ranking.

    And the made cut record? In at least a few cases, Tiger would show up hobbled and not play very well. Once it became clear he wasn’t going to make the cut, he’d withdraw due to injury. If he did make the cut? Oh, THEN he’d find the will to make it through Sunday.

    Tiger dominated, that’s for sure. But WGR or cuts isn’t really the criteria I’d use to make this case.

    They changed the formula for world #1. It’s harder to stay on top now.

    Scottie probably cares about this more than the Ryder Cup. Hell, he probably cares about anything more than the Ryder Cup.

    OWGR kept Tiger at #1 for way too long.
