First off, throw the money out the window. I don't have the numbers in front of me, but I'm guessing the $600,000 Billy Mayfair won today by FINISHING SECOND in an "everyday" tour stop is alot more than anyone even through the 70's and 80's WON for winning a major.

The consecutive cuts I'll give you, and no one is arguing Tiger's place among the all-time greats (at least so far), but the crowning him the greatest ever, when other golfers in other generations did some darn amazing things on the golf course is what gets to me. I find it interesting that once your argument about smashing major scoring records was debunked (and how!), you've fallen to the winning margin argument. And when other golfers have won the actual GRAND SLAM, I won't even comment on placing emphasis on the media-created "Tiger Slam".
