Episode 24, Tiger Woods the GOAT

Episode 24, Tiger Woods the GOAT

This week we discuss the final Generation in our GOAT debate discussing the careers of Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods. After looking back at the career of Tiger Woods, we begin to ask ourselves is there really anyone in the game to challenge him as the greatest of all time. 

We take a look back at the SA Open and Golf in Dubai Championships on the European Tour and what this meant for entries into this weeks DP World Championships in Dubai and we also discussed the Mayakoba Golf Classic in Mexico which saw Viktor Hovland claim his second PGA Tour championship in 2020. 

We both had our first full week back playing golf after the 4 week UK lockdown and we discuss how it felt getting back on the course and how we will continue to work on our games both on and off the course ready for a big 2021. 

We look ahead to a big week on the European Tour as it hosts the final event and we discuss who we believe will be crowned the #1 golfer on the European Tour for 2020. We also paid tribute to the voice of the Open Championship Peter Allis. 

We hope you enjoy.
