I have a hard time with a golfer being an athlete. It's a skill sport. He coincidentally may be an athlete, but nothing I see on a golf course will ever allow me to call someone an athlete solely on them swinging a club. Deion Sanders was an athlete, Bo Jackson was an athlete. Craig Stadler, not so much. A golfer can be dominant in his sport much as tiger is, but to put him on a tier of top level athletes he would get embarassed.

Golfers in general, ok. Tiger Woods would be embarrassed? I highly doubt it.

If you don't think Tiger's an athelete...try working out with the Army Rangers, AND the Navy Seals....and also while you're at it, try to hit a golf ball 350 yards....

Very admirable, but still doesn't make him the best. Nobody would question his dominance in the game of golf, but IMO the best athlete would be someone who participates in a sport that requires endurance and strength... Football, Basketball, Boxing, Triathlon, etc.
