Thanks for the list droogy.
 Jack sticks out for obvious reasons on that list...73 top 10s.  Tiger might top Jack's 18 majors but he'd need to finish in the top 10 in every major until he was 43 to touch that record. Also, look at the longevity of some on that list...Jack had 38 years between his first and last top 10, Sam Snead 37, and Gene Sarazen 39. Those are just the ones I noted at first glance anyway.

A couple of points should be noted here. Before 1958 the PGA Championship was played as Match Play and the guys who lost in the round before the semi-finals (they would've tied 9th place) were not credited with top ten finishes.
And, as always is important to remember, during WWII a total of 17 major championships were cancelled. This means Ben Hogan, Byron Nelson and Sam Snead could've registered anywhere from as little as five, or as many as 10 or 12 additional top tens during their careers. Just something to chew on, folks.
