Tiger has prevailed in several close major thrillers — which was the best?:
1. defeating Sergio Garcia by 1-stroke at the ’99 PGA Championship.
2. defeating Bob May in a 3-hole playoff at the ’00 PGA Championship.
3. defeating David Duval by 2 strokes at the ’01 Masters.
4. defeating Chris DiMarco in a playoff at the ’05 Masters.
I tried to think of the times Tiger has lost in close thrillers, but could only come with one (so cheated by adding the TPC to the mix):
1. Rich Beem over Tiger by 1-stroke at the ’02 PGA Championship.
2. Hall Sutton over Tiger at the ’00 TPC.
3. can anyone else stare him down, mano a mano?
