this is an interesting thought. also, how many different events have they won? in how many different states have they won an A-tier? how many 1000+ rated players have they beaten? obviously that last one would be incomplete for Climo.
in time it will be interesting to see how old McBeth is when he wins his last major, NT, etc.
in 2007, at 38, Climo won USDGC and the Euro Open. in 2009 & 2010 (eligible for masters) he won 2 NT's (each year).
I have a feeling that by the time Mcbeth turns 40 he has gone the route of Schusterick and will hardly compete. Climo just loved touring and competing, to the point that he probably lacked some balance in his life. Mcbeth seems like he is settling down much earlier, which makes me think his main drive will drift away solely from competition.
