      He was. Go watch his seminar with Tiger from 2009. Anthony didn’t know how he did what he did. He couldn’t explain how he hit certain shots. He said he just feels his way around. His subconscious knows what to do to hit the specific shot necessary.

      @테이크원 wtf do you mean? Tiger just won the 2018 Masters which is the highest level of golf there is and against some of the youngest pros after a devastating back surgery that would’ve ended the careers of most golfers yet alone saying goodbye to ever winning a major.
      Most pros have yet to win a Masters. Not even Rory won one and Tiger has won 5. Regardless of who he is playing against, you have to look at the margin and score of which he won those tournaments. He dominated in his prime. He dominated so much that if the same players today were to play against when he won, Tiger would still beat them. And this is only factoring his talent and skills. If you consider the intimidation he brings to the course and the crowd roaring and cheering for one man, all that stuff gets into these young players’ heads. You must not recognize greatness.

    AK had injuries from wrist to ankle. What made him quit was an insurance policy which he purchased earlier worth $20M if his career ends in injury. He was recovering from the wrist injury when he injured his ankle jogging and required surgery. Apparently there are number of days injured required for the policy to kick in. There were 3 days remaining and if he takes the insurance money, he can never play professional ever again as part of the condition of the policy. (Loss of ability to perform). He just took the $20M and sailed into the sunset. I would have loved to see him go up against Rory because he ‘s got game.

    Kind of sucks he didn't keep playing. He would have been a top 15-20 player pretty much every year and would have had many more wins. He had charisma and just a fantastic short game. Hard to believe that was 10 years ago.

    AK's career ended way too early along with Ryo Ishikawa too, we should be watching them compete against Rory, Speith, Koepka, Thomas, DJ, Tiger, Kuchar, Matsuyama, etc.. for majors right now but injuries can be a fickle beast.
