Ichiro had better numbers minus the HRs.
I don't care about media awards and the championships are a team accomplishment.

Never forget the Angels had Trout AND Ohtani and never made the playoffs!

 

[Kunty McPhuck]

Any athlete? Any sport? Since 2017?

Tadej Pogacar.

 

[BucciMane]

In terms of accolades, it’s Gretzky.

 

[Dem313wayz]

Tiger?

That's a good answer.

He turned pro middle of 96. So we can just start with 97.

He introduced himself to the world winning the 97 masters.

2000 was just domination. Achieved the Tiger slam. Embarrassed the field at the 2000 US Open.

By 2005 8 years into his career he had 10 majors and won 61 tournaments.

 

[BucciMane]

If she didn’t get shanked by some lunatic, then Monica Seles would be up there. Tough to rank individual sports against team sports though.

I think Gretzky is clearly the answer though.
