Tiger Woods

Over a 10 year stretch from 1999 to 2009 Tiger was more likely to win (34%) than finish 9th or worse (32%).

And

Best score to par in majors, 1997-2009 (min. Of 70 rounds)

Tiger Woods -134
Phil Mickelson +99
Ernie Els +118

Phil was only player within 250 Strokes of Woods.

Yep. His play was amazing and that score to par in majors is so far ahead of everyone in history, not to mention of those he played against. Add in there were way more good players when he played than Jack, a strong argument can be made Tiger was the best ever even though Jack won more majors (and had more seconds). I really liked watching Tiger play golf, but I wouldn't ask him for marriage advice.

He's still the 2nd best
