Great players like Tiger or Nicklaus or Palmer or Hogan, there just aren't too many of them around. Is Vijay going to challenge Tiger? He probably could in a given year. Is Charles Howell? Is Ryan Moore? He certainly has the potential, but that's yet to be seen.
Tiger is going to lead the way. I didn't know Michelangelo, but I'm assuming he was always trying to do better art or a better sculpture. Last year, Tiger was 29, working on his game like he was 19. There is no reason the next 10 years should be any different.
You have to remember that Tiger is not Earl's only child. He had three other kids. He wasn't a rookie at this.
