Just how good is Tiger? Well, his opponents in the WGC Accenture Match Play Championship were a collective 22 under par, and they were all sent packing.

To put that into perspective, Phil Mickelson shot 12-under for four rounds at Riviera and won by two. Steve Lowery shot 10 under at Pebble Beach and won in a playoff with Vijay Singh.

Tiger shot somewhere in the stroke-play neighborhood of 30-under-par in six matches. That was with one drive out-of-bounds, two unplayable lies, and one left-handed chop out of a bush that hit a gallery stake.

The Woods-Baddeley match was the high-water mark of the week. Between the two of them they had 21 birdies in 20 holes. After a shaky start where the tee shots were going low and left, Baddeley showed the world the player who won the Australian Open as a teenager and was considered a young-gun rival for Tiger. He hit great shots and great putts throughout…good enough to beat anyone else in the game, just not Tiger.

Woods then made mincemeat out of K.J. Choi, who shot 4 under and was summarily dismissed. Henrik Stinson was 5 under when Tiger sent him packing. Even Stewart Cink, who was skunked by the time NBC signed on for their afternoon coverage, shot 70 in the morning and was 4-under through 29 holes when Tiger put it away in the most lopsided final in the history of the event.

It isn’t that his opponents played badly this week, or that they were intimidated. They weren’t. They were just beaten. Tiger is in a league of his own.
