Good article on the letters Arnie sent to Rory after his wins and how Rory would like to continue the tradition later on in his career.

Got me thinking that that is a long ways off. Arnie, Jack and Gary Player have been staples for so long and were so good, who could continue on this tradition in the immediate future?
Tom Watson comes to mind. Nobody other than him from the 70's/80's seems like it would mean anything to the next generation.
Later on, Tiger could probably do it, but doesn't seem like his personality. Phil would be great as well, but probably not until his playing slows down.
