What major would you want to win?

Personally I would want the U.S. Open the most because I think its the hardest test of golf. I would also love the British...**** I would love any of them!!

I think the British if it was at St Andrews first and foremost.

I'd love to win at Augusta. My senario would be- Shoot a 4th round 60 to get into a tie for first with Tiger Woods. Then go into a 6 hole playoff against Tiger only to seal the deal with an Albatross to cap off the biggest comeback in Masters history.

I would have to go with Augusta simply because it is the best conditioned out of any of the majors although to beat the best field, I would have to say US Open.

Since no one has said the PGA Championship I'll say that.... OK maybe not. I would say the British Open. I've always loved watching it on TV....

The Masters, baby. None of the others gives you a lifetime exemption...

Exactly my choice for exactly the same reason. Hootie may as well type my "letter" the day I win because I'm playing as long as I can swing a club! Billy Casper may not have his dubious record as long as everyone thinks!

I'd go Masters for the exemption but I think then the British Open, it's just a different kind of golf altogether than what is played here in North America so that would be my second

The US Open... In 2008, west coast, public course... If not at Torrey Pines then in 2010 at Pebble Beach... but definitely the US Open that's my favorite one

There is something to be said for winning your country's national championship, so I'll go with the US Open.

So you would be happy to eclipse Billy Casper's record?

I would shoot a 120 if it meant I got to play at the masters

I would love to play the masters but I wouldn't want to be remembered for having the worst round in history there. Especially if I was a former champion.
Like anyone, I look at such people with a certain amount of sadness and ask myself why they didn't know when to say enough was enough

The Open Championship at Hoylake, Royal Birkdale or Lytham St Annnes..... all of those are within 40 minutes of where I live so it would be like a home major.

To paraphrase Sam Torrence..... the biggest compliment I could pay Tiger is that of the 100 majors I won in my dreams he came second every time....

Sam said it about Jack.
