## Resource

What if Tiger’s entire career starts in 2010 instead of 1996? We break down the alternate timeline and debate whether Tiger still becomes “GOAT Tiger” in the modern era. How much of his dominance was skill, how much was timing, and how much was psychological pressure on the field? We also get into what GOAT even means, the majors math, and how the modern tour changes the ceiling. After the main debate, we hit the weekly golf news and close with a fun ranking of the worst feelings in golf.
