Colin Montgomerie aka Mrs. Doubtfire Says He Wouldn't Trade Careers With Tiger Woods (hmm let's compare)
Golf Channel — “I never won a major,” Montgomerie said ahead of the PGA Tour Champions Chubb Classic. “Tiger won 14. But would I trade my career for Tiger’s? No. I started out this game a pretty good golfer and finished in the Hall of Fame.
“I feel I have overachieved. So how could I say I wish it were better? People will say, ‘Well, he didn’t win a major.’ And, yes, I would have liked to shut them up by winning one. But that’s my only regret, really. Great that I have won senior majors, which has quieted the odd person.
“I’ve made mistakes. We all make mistakes. But I’ve had a long career. I don’t think Tiger will be out here at 53. He might say, ‘I don’t need the money.’ But it’s not just money. It’s self-esteem. Self-esteem is huge in life. You walk a wee bit taller, having done something well. I like this life. I like meeting new people. I like the travel. I love the life. Whether it’s for everybody, I can’t say.”
Interesting. Let’s compare.
Colin Montgomerie
Major championships.
PGA Tour wins.
Tiger Woods.
Major championships.
PGA Tour wins.
Okay. Interesting. Here is the closest similarity I could find.
I personally prefer Tiger’s career when he won a billion times versus Montie’s where he won zero but everybody’s different. Winning must be an American thing.
