Even back then, a young Jim Nantz knew to let the moment speak for itself, at least for a few seconds...the man is a master of his craft

Think about the duel between Jack and Tom Watson at the '77 British: Tom drove down the 18th fairway perfectly, and Jack, who was a stroke behind, hit an uncharacteristically errant drive into heavy rough, almost into a gorse bush. Tom's second shot ended up 4 feet from the pin, and Jack, out of 7-inch hay, somehow slammed his ball onto the green, about 30 feet away, and MADE that putt. Tom also made his and won, but not many people in the game can do what Jack did on that hole.

A lot of guys my age and younger, who grew up in the TigerMania era, tend to forget just how much magic guys like Jack, Arnie, Player, Hogan etc., produced as well. I mainly blame the media for that. All those guys were on the same top competitive level as Tiger, Phil and other media darlings these days, with the same killer instinct.

As far as the media's obsession with Tiger? He and his Dad brought that on voluntarily. Tiger should be "greatful" (grateful) to the players before him as will future players be of them and Tiger.

You missed the point. Jack was inspired. But he took the standard further than Tiger will take the standard Nicklaus set. If the standard is total majors, Jack has 20 vs. Jones' 13 -- 7 more or a 54% increase. If it is pro majors, Jack has 18 vs. Hagen's 11 -- 7 more or a 64% increase. To Tiger's credit, he will likely exceed 18, but not to the degree Jack passed Jones and Hagen. You never heard Jack focused on 13 majors or 11. All we've heard about is Tiger's desire to break Jack's 18.

.....and jack was inspired by jones etc. etc.
some people in here talk as if they have never really tried to accomplish any major goals. dont give me the graduating from college crap. everyone has done that but not too many have raised the bar in a given field.
yeah, tiger just looked at jack, went to sleep and woke up as the games best. it didnt take any ounce of monumental self endeavor with the world watching your every move with a microscope.
yeah, tiger should be greatful. |
