Tiger losing his stripes?

From the 1999 PGA Championship through the 2002 U.S. Open, Woods won seven out of 11 majors that were played. In this age and time, the level and depth of competition in golf is so high that it is virtually impossible to see anyone complete a Grand Slam. But if anyone could, Tiger could.

Simply put, Tiger's biggest strength is not in his swing or his putting. But, as his former coach, Butch Harmon, said: "It's his mind, his heart, his guts, his determination, his desire to beat you, to succeed, his love for the moment, his ability to control his nervous system, his emotion and his heart-rate. We've never had a player like this."
