That was a great interview. He was correct, too. Tiger is simply on another plane. It takes a perfect tournament from someone to beat him, and he can win even when he is off.
The only thing left for him is to prove he can dominate at that same level while he wants to spend time with his family.

: I heard another interesting comment from
: Goydos' saying Tiger "might be the most
: underated athlete on earth". His point
: being, even with the hype, and while
: everyone acknowledges he's the best player,
: they still underestimate how much better he
: is then everyone else. As for Kenny Perry,
: that guy might shut down the Senior Tour for
: a couple years when he turns 50.

: I think Paul's comment is correct.
: Sometimes
: there are players so far above their
: competition, that a loss by them is rare.
: But the purses for the 2 thru 5 finishers
: are very high. The Goydos', Perry's, Kim's,
: Johnson's and Mallinger's can make a good
: living with 2 thru 5 finishes. Every now
: and then one of them makes a breakthrough.
:
: With that prespective I'm very happy for
: Paul and John and the golf they are playing.
: I wish I could be there, but it will never
: happen.

: The only real big American name missing is
: Phil, and his wife is going thru cancer.
: Zach Johnson and Kenny Perry have played in
: the recent events that really had no big
: names, so I'd cut them some slack. The
: foreigners are all back home in Europe or
: where ever getting ready for the British.
:
: Paul once said "Tiger pays me a lot of
: money to beat me every week". I asked
: him to explain and he said Tiger is the
: best, since he beats the best every week. I
: think every Tour member knows how important
: Tiger is, and would play if he really asked,
: but the Tour needs the bigger names to be
: spread out.

: My comment is it's great to see Paul doing
: so
: well. Hope he can get to the British.
: Looks like he's got some good years left.
: Also looks like he could/would be an
: outstanding Golf Analyst if he wanted to get
: into the TV world.
:
: My question relates to Tiger and his
: affiliation with this weeks event. Is there
: some kind of "Tiger Envy" going
: on. The field in his event is void of a lot
: of the top players. From a schedule
: standpoint it sets up perfectly being 2
: weeks after the US Open and 2 weeks before
: the British. Knowing his impact has
: basically doubled all their incomes you
: think they would show up in mass. Where's
: the love?

: Right now, Paul is looking good for maybe
: qualifying for the British Open. There is a
: special exemption (the top 2 money winners
: on the PGA Tour from The Players to this
: week, that aren't otherwise eligible)
: qualify for the British. According to an
: article I read yesterday, Paul looks very
: good for that. Fingers crossed!
