There is absolutely no one at the moment who has either the game or the guts to stand up to Tiger Woods. If Woods happens to lose a tournament, it’s only because he had an off-week, and that won’t last long.

I really think only Ernie Els has what it takes to challenge Woods in the next year or two.

That being said, here are my top-10 picks as those most likely to challenge El Tigre’s unchallenged supremacy:

1-Ernie Els: If he ever gets back to form, he can do it.
2-Jim Furyk: Probably too light of a hitter.
3-Vijay Singh: He’s done it before, he could do it again.
4-Hunter Mahan: Very talented.
5-Steve Stricker: Another talented young gun.
6-Phil Mickelson: The most talent, but the most intimidated by Woods.
7-Adam Scott – A little too laid-back.
8-Paddy Harrington: I like the little Irishman’s fire.
9-Woody Austin: I like the way the Wood Man stands up to Woods.
10-Sergio Garcia: I’ve said it before, if Sergio could putt he’d be in the top three.
