Legend has it that in 1995 or thereabouts, someone asked Sandy Lyle what he thought of Tiger Woods. Sandy thought it was the name of a new golf course. Mind you, when bumping into Tony Jacklin at Orlando airport later that year, Sandy's answer to Tony's question "where are you off to" was "the toilet".Lyle notwithstanding, could anybody now disagree that Tiger is not just the greatest golfer of all time, but possibly, just possibly the greatest sportsman ever?
Last Sunday was just ridiculous. Ask Sean O'Hair. But no more ridiculous than the US Open on one leg. Or that chip in at 16 at the Masters with the Nike logo poised over the cup.
Tiger Woods. Greatest. Sportsman. Ever. And yes, 3/1 was great value....that subject, my dear Twittering friends, is now closed.
