I mean if he is leading, he wins. Period. He knows it, the field knows it, the fans know it. It is unbelievable!

One knock on Tiger is that he's not known really for coming back on the final day if he's trailing. And one impressive stat about Nicklaus is not only 18 majors, but 19 second place finishes. I realize that second place is just the first loser, but still that's not bad.
And of course....Kobiashi!
