Got into Vegas, earlier today and it's 12-1 for Tiger to win all 4 majors.

What do you think?

I don't think he does it. He has a really really good shot at 3, but to me the biggest wild card is the British. The way the conditions can be over there makes it such a toss up. That being said, if there is a year to bet on it, I would think that this is the best chance he's ever had.

his best shot is any year the British is at St. Andrews.

He is back at the top of his game. That sounds funny saying that he is "back" but this is his best chance imo. He is playing on another level and it is fun to watch the others fold.

don't really know. typical US Open setups are a problem for Tiger. Bethpage and Pebble were his to lose because of the course setup.

but the typical open isn't on a course that he has dominated either. It should be interesting either way.

he probably has an advantage on the greens, but he hasn't played it like the USGA sets 'em up. I do think that he and Phil could have a fireworks kind of week there since both play it well.

it depends on if they go back to the thick rough again. If they do he gets knocked back abit...but if he putts like he did last week then i'm not sure it will matter.

they're talking about thinning out the rough some because of the absurd length they can go with the course. that clearly plays into Tiger's hands. The longer they make 'em, the bigger his advantage becomes.

I bet him winning all 4, and then just winning 2 of the 4

It will make them interesting

Can Tiger win all 4 this year? Absolutely. However, he's not even good enough that I would take him and the 12 to 1 odds. He'll falter somewhere. It's early, anything can and will happen.

it's not alot of money, but it will make it interesting especially if he leads off with a Masters win

he has the biggest homecourt advantage in all of golf at Augusta, so expecting a good start makes a heckuva lot of sense.
