Couples could be seen praising Woods as the best player ever and expressing how fantastic it is to watch and play with his former partner. Couples could be heard saying in this little clip, “To win seven, eight times in a year when you’re only playing 16 or 18 times. I, in golf, had never seen anything like that, and we talk about that a lot. I always felt like this guy is the greatest player that I’ve ever seen play.”

Furthermore, praising the 15-times major winner, Couples added, “When you watch Tiger in person, it’s pretty darn good stuff. He just is a winner. You know the guy is a complete winner.” The Tiger Effect is a comprehensive examination of the Hall of Famer’s illustrious career and his impact both on and off the golf course.

Fred Couples chose Tiger Woods over Jack Nicklaus

Couples have had the exceptional chance to play alongside two of the best golfers in history, Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus. The 63-year-old got the chance to play with Nicklaus in his prime years in the 1980s and later with Woods at the pinnacle of his greatness in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Couples praised both Nicklaus and Woods, admiring their extraordinary talent and accomplishments in golf. He has frequently commended the 18-times major winner, Nicklaus, for his dependability, longevity, and capacity to deliver in crucial championship situations. He has also praised the 15-time major winner, Woods, for his extraordinary work ethic and mental fortitude, which allowed him to rule the sport during his prime. However, the golfing world has taken notice since Couples named Woods the greatest player ever.
