I think it is unfair to the rest of the golfers when the announcers continue to use him as the bench mark or comparison.

Players that are on page one being compared to Tiger who may be on page 2 or out of the top 10....

As in well Tiger hit one like that yesterday or Tiger would have played it thus or so or Tiger usually plays this one thus or so.....

Yes he is a past great golfer as measured by his wins. And like all the other past great golfers he does make page one or the top ten and even a win....once in a while.

The Tiger mania? To each his own!! My standards for great are Nicklaus and Palmer and Norman.
