Tiger Drops To 87th & A Reminder How Dominant He Was

March 17, 2015/ Geoff Shackelford

Golfweek's Jim McCabe considers Tiger's fall to 87th in the world and Phil's less extreme slide, predicting that should Tiger pass up entering either of the two upcoming Texas events, he'll fall to 104th in the world by Masters week.

But to put Woods' domination into perspective (and to offset the less positive news), McCabe notes this:

Want further proof that Woods put together a mind-blogging resume? The current top 10 – Rory McIlroy, Bubba Watson, Henrik Stenson, Adam Scott, Jason Day, Spieth, Jim Furyk, Sergio Garcia, Dustin Johnson, and Justin Rose combine for 75 PGA Tour wins – four fewer than Woods owns.
