can't wait for the olds to go ballistic when Tiger beats Jack
Why? Until he got hurt, Tiger was better than ever was.

I get what you are saying and I don't think that anyone is expecting Tiger to win at a clip that he was at back in his prime but if you have been watching today (assuming you haven't) he looks damn good. Ball speed on the drives 179-181 consistently (Rory averaged 180 last year) and putting looks great. Chipping will be an issue at this tourney with the way they cut the bermuda around the greens but that will improve with time and confidence/practice. He really looks healthy finally and pain free, it's fun to see.
As for the fields being deeper I agree, but if you think a healthy Tiger is worried/going to be beat by damn Rafa Cabrera Bello or some of the other guys outside of the top 20 I don't really know what to to tell you.

Not saying that Tiger is worried about anyone else in the least. I expect him to welcome the challenge. Just saying that the competition he'll encounter will be way stiffer than it was 10-15 years ago, so it'll be way harder for him to win 5 more majors.
I'm one of the older guys around here and I say more power to Tiger if he can beat Jack's records. I believe Jack has said as much, too.
Tiger with a 325 yard rope driver on the green for an eagle look, drains it. Could be a really fun year for golf if he can clean up around the edges of his game. His previous comebacks would feature one good round out of 4, not one bad round out of 4.
Plus on day one I think he a good eagle and a birdie look on the last 3 par 5's but came out of them +2. Had a few grainy chips from the bermuda he was rusty on. He's leaked probably 6 strokes on simple things that come from playing more often.
Completely shocked by him this week.
Tiger committed to playing the Farmer's Open at Torrey. Should be a fun tournament.
