No, the competition isn't choking Tiger is just that good.

(W) Palmer vs Mickelson

(W) Player Vs Love
(W) Ballesteros vs Goosen
Trevino Vs Price (W)

(W) Crenshaw vs Furyk
Kite vs Singh (W)
Miller vs Duval (T)
Weiskopf vs Scott (W)
Just my humble opinion, but some of the W's are huge differences.
I believe if you look at how Tiger's competitors perform when Tiger is not in the running or when there is a common man leading a major or big event, you will see that Tiger's competitors do not fare too well. Tiger has no influence on how poorly today's top players cannot close the deal.
