tonyj5 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Is it possible that the golf world has found its next Tiger Woods? Is it possible that this player does not play on the PGA tour, but plays on the LPGA? http://www.tonyslpgareport.com/2016/04/is-lydia-ko-new-tiger-woods.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGoBlue100 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 No, because she seems like a sweet person, not a narcissist prima donna. Amazing player, though!

revkev Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 First the question is premature, ask it in five years and second I wouldn't wish that on her parents. As MGo Blue said she seems sweet.

Kenny B Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 She has the game. Let's see if it holds up; think Yani Tseng. “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigtazzGolf Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I think no, but I think she could be the next Lorena Ochoa or Annika. Loved watching both of those gals play. And I think Ko is made up of the same stuff.

PlaidJacket Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 It's not a realistic comparison to use Tiger Woods or any man for that matter. Ko needs to be compared with other great women golfers. I mean... would anyone ever say, "Is Jordan Spieth the next Annika Sorenstam? Ridiculous.

BigtazzGolf Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Comparing on talent, Tiger wins hands down. Ko is good but she isn't in his class as far as talent. She doesn't have the drive or killer instinct that he had at the same age. She is special, no doubt, but she isn't at Tigers level imo Tazz Sent using the MSG app! @bigtazzGOLF on Twitter Grip n Rip it Chicks dig the LONG ball In my staff bag King F7+ Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro White 60 - Graphite Tour X-Stiff CBX 13.5 3 Wood Atomic Irons 4-AW (reviewing) CG16 Satin 52* 588 RTX 2.0 56* and 60* Sentio Sierra 101-M Putter Proud tester of the Tommy Armour ATOMIC Irons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarrettSmithGolf Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I think she could be the next Tiger Woods, just a slightly more subtle and personable version. If she is able to continue with her dominance as she grows in the game we may see more and more comparisons to Tiger. The biggest thing to note is that Lydia Ko could be that dominant figure that brings more money into the LPGA. Just like Tiger was for the men's tour. Personally, I love watching the LPGA as much as the guys. Those Ladies can play! Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
