Ian Poulter needs to win something of importance before he starts throwing around statements that he is on the level of Tiger. Maybe one day he can win a major and then he will only be about a dozen or so behind Tiger. Also He is not even in the top 20 in the world, what rediculous statement. I will have a good laugh when he tees off at 8 in the morning on sunday at the Masters because he is 10 shots back of the leader, most likely Tiger.
Very strange - why would he "not rate any one else"
Surely he has to realise there are better European let alone worldwide players than himself? Potential realised or not? Justin Rose springs to mind for one!
Without reading Golf World I wouldn't want to judge but suspect creative journalism has played some part although would have thought IP would have signed off on any publication before it went to print.
Just found it - he's with Cobra (one of yours jon?)
They don't have many (Ogilvy highest ranked at 9) so he might be safe. Except that the parent company is Acushnet so there could be pressure from Titleist, Footjoy - maybe he wants Adams
I like Poulter, I have met him and found him to be a great guy, however on this occassion it would be fair to say that he has been a bit of a tool.
HTL, it is scary how much power tiger has and it is wrong. I can't wait for the day that tiger starts getting regular arse-whippings. I really don't have any liking for him.
Jon,
I agree with you, I find Tiger the most boring sports person of recent times (minus steve McClown). I think Poulter was just having a bit of banter and the journo got it all wrong.
