Subject: Tiger Trivia Question
I predict that if you don't look this up first, your guess will be off
by at least 10.

Tiger has won 56 official PGA events. How many different players
finished second to him in those events?

I saw this article earlier and i thought it was stupid. The answer is
sumping like 50 but who cares? It tells you nothing about tiger or
anyone else. Like holding the record for most victories in a tournament
with six syllables in it's name.

I wonder how many people finished second to Nicklaus? Probably 3.

Fortunately for me, I still remember Seve butchering 10 to be the
first knocked out.

My first guess was 56. And then I figured it must be a trick question, so I
guessed 75 (a lot of ties for 2nd).

One of my favorite trivias is "When Larry Mize chipped in to win The
Masters in 1987, who finshed 2nd?"

hours of sleep and my typing kicked in before my brain did.

My math must be terrible; however, both Els and Singh have finished
second five times to Woods. 56 - 10 = 46 other second place
finishers, no?
