If peak Tiger Woods was the year 2000, nothing emphasised his dominance more than the battering of Pebble Beach into submission. “I don’t know if we’ll ever see a performance as dominant as that again,” said Rory McIlroy of Woods’s Pebble procession. That particular performance, which delivered Woods’s third major win, was extraordinary even by the standards of a phenomenal sportsman. It’s a major championship. With that comes a premium on driving accuracy; as suits Koepka and McIlroy, if not, in theory, Woods.
