Lol. You said “Faldo's majors are much better”. Maybe you could start by supporting that claim. Or not, I actually don’t care.


3 Masters and 3 OPEN's > Whatever + 2 PGA

The PGA is barely a major, the had to move it to make anyone try and give a shite about it anymore.

And Norman would have had to shoot par or better to win that Masters in 96, it was a brutal day and yes he folded but Faldo shot a field best 67 and won by 5 shots.

Youngster......

Yes they do, but lots don't know shite about golf other than sucking in Chamblee's hot takes. Faldo played a magnificent round. He's the only golfer Ben Hogan ever requested to meet after his retirement from public life.

18 straight pars to win the British was pretty good too.

My own opinion is Faldo because he spent over a year total at NO 1
Phil would have been world #1 far longer than Faldo if it weren't for Tiger, plus Phil would have even more wins.

How tough was it to catch Tiger as world number 1?

Scottie Scheffler's OWGR points average this week is 10.06, putting him comfortably in the no. 1 spot.

Phil Mickelson had 77 different weeks from 2000-2008 where his average points number was higher than Scottie's is this week.

So he wasnt good enough to grab the number one spot. Thanks for clearing that up.

BTW have you ever heard of Greg Norman? A guy that won 89 tournaments and spent 331 weeks as world #1 in Faldo's prime.

Your what if is dumb as F

Are you really trying to compare Greg Norman to Tiger?

Low IQ poster was playing "what ifs" Greg Norman had a longer uninterrupted reign at #1 than Woods did, BTW Faldo won 5 professional events in a year before world rankings even existed.

Mickelson didn't have the game to better the best of his peers. Faldo did, Faldo won more prestigious majors as well. Faldo wasn't a choke artist, nor a degenerate gambler or cuck.

Faldo was a better player and is a better person.

Sorry everyone's Jimmies are so rustled over it.

His ex wives (three of them) and mistresses would probably disagree with that.

Not even close to being true.

You have zero idea. And you continue to be by far the worst poster on any board. You make Damone look decent.

Phil is also a fake. At least you know what you get with Nick.

I know a guy who was a superintendent at a course that Faldo designed. Faldo is not a pleasant person to work with or be around.
