corn02 · February 18, 2009, 03:22:58 PM

Tiger may be back for the Matchplay next weekend.

The title of world's best sportsstar will be reclaimed quickly by him.

Hardly the world best sport star ever or even still active.

Federer in my opinion but if want most consistent, Phil the Power is hard to beat.

Laughable that you would snigger at the mention of Tiger and then offer Federer and Taylor as replacements. All valid contenders, but golf is a sport where any group of 30 golfers can win the big ones and Tiger usually comes out on top.

Tiger is not only the best now he is one of the best sportsmen ever IMHO...

I agree, Tiger is the most complete and clean sportsman I have seen in my lifetime.

corn02 · February 18, 2009, 03:47:50 PM

Have to agree, I opened this topic in a bit of jest, but love the varying arguments. Nobody can ge tclose to Tiger for the accolade in my opinion.

When or where did I snigger at Tiger?
Schumacher was some driver ,while Lance was great but there will always be doubts.

Not literally. But "hardly the best" would indicate you thought it was a ludicrous suggestion?

Not ludicrous but not one I wouldn't agree with. I think their are a few above him but that's just me

Phil Taylor

Slightly off on a tangent here but i read a piece by a Times journalist the other day that Woods was the most difficult (not in a bad way) & enjoyable interview he has ever had. The journalist said he prides himself on directing the interview to where he wants but Woods left him "black & blue" ! Will try and find the article.
