Bobby Jones
and Tiger Woods There was no doubt during each of their primes, who the G O A T was... more emphasis on G O A T than 'the'. ...and I can hear Jack fans yelling already.

During Nicklaus' prime -- which lasted considerably longer than Woods' -- he had competition from several golfers generally regarded to be in the top 10 or so of all time -- Palmer, Player, Watson. The same is not true of Woods. In any event, Nicklaus IMO is easily the greatest golfer of all time, even if for a stretch Woods was more dominant. Nicklaus not only won the Masters at age 46, for me what was even more remarkable was that he was among the leaders 11 years later at age 57. Absurd.

Discussions like these are always interesting and many tremendous athletes have already been mentioned.
The first name that popped into my head when I saw the thread was Muhammad Ali--to me he was, and likely always will be, the "greatest" athlete ever. But I must give a shout out to Serena Williams. Dominant in a career that has spanned many years.
