Over his long career, which began in 1986, he’s won five tour events, about what Tiger averages in a single season. As for the majors, the 2008 US Open is his fourth top 10 compared to Tiger’s 13. So on paper this should be a mismatch.

Yes, this should be a complete slaughter, and it likely will be – but then again maybe not. We could have interesting contest if some combination of the following things happen: 1) Tiger’s knee bothers him to the point where he loses some of his effectiveness, 2) Tiger continues to give away strokes because of his crooked driving, 3) Rocco keeps playing the game that got him into a playoff, and 4) The USGA does not set up the course tomorrow so that it favors Tiger and his long ball.

If Rocco wins, he’ll have his first major and become the oldest winner of our nations championship. If Tiger wins, a zillion things will happen to the record books as they do with every win. The three biggest will be: 1) his fourteenth major, 3) his third career Grand Slam, and 3) his major winning streak will extend to four years.
