Well, anybody would be considered peaked if they had to follow up 9 wins.
I think his best golf is behind him, but he is so skilled that he still has wins in him. Don't forget, he plays lots of events and with his game against weaker fields he will still take home trophies.

VJ is nothing but a ******* PEAKER

I'm with TOJ on this one. The list of guys who've had their best years in their 40s is a very short one. He turns 43 this month. 2004 was the "peak" for VJ. He's not done winning and he could have a couple more great years if he gets his putter under control. No more 9 win seasons, though, until he hits the senior circuit.

I wish him all the best i just believe he has peaked. he shoudl IMO focus harder on the majors now for the next few years and add to his growing legend. The guy has played every week this year thus far. What like 5 straight weeks? Hes a machine i give him that and i respect his work ethic tremendously.

Lets hope he's peaked, I'm about all VJ'd out.
VJ Couples are you from Monrovia, Ca. or Liberia?

I'm gonna go with the "yes he has peaked" people. He's been quiet as of late last year and early this year......and he's getting up there :)

Until his putter starts to work again, he is in a slide.

I think he's probably peaked. Then again, no one works on his game with more commitment than he does, so it's possible he'll "find it" and hit a streak that seems unreal.
As for legend, he took the number 1 spot away from Tiger Woods for awhile. No one else can lay that claim. He's earned his spot as a golf legend.

Yeah I think he's peaked but I dont think he's going to fade away, he'll be a dominant force in golf for 3 or 4 more years.

Vijays putting killed him last year. He could have easily won the British Open and several more tournaments last year with better putting. As far as him "peaking" it's hard to say. He is still one of the best players on the world but at the level he plays at if one component of his game is off it's going to cost him opporturnities to win tournaments.

Vijay's getting better with age but so are the fields, so he may not win 9 in a year but not because he's regressing. *edited comment here *

He has peeked with his driver....he is using a 47" shaft now.

As others have said Vijay's putting is a glaring weakness. He was winning all those tournys cause his birdie putt was a 2 or 3 footer. And even then he'd miss a few of those.

Maybe he was in the zone for 6 months, or got really hot when he did, but frankly I don't see him recapturing the glory of 2004.

Unless he can somehow figure out how to make 10 and 15 footers more consistently and not miss those 2 footers so much then you won't see him posting W's anytime soon. As for winning another major - um, yeah, sure. If Ben Curtis and Rich Beem, et al, can win majors, then sure, anything is possible.

I don't think he'll ever equal 2004 again either, but I don't believe you just equated VJ's chances with those of Curtis & Beem. I'll give you everyone named Curtis or Beem... Rich or Ben too, for that matter, and I'll take VJ in the next 20 majors.
