FWIW, i don't agree. maybe UK and ireland. perhaps australia and south africa but i don't think so... i think other than UK/ireland the masters is miles ahead.
tennis is also analogous. the players have basically said wimbledon is miles ahead of any other. even nadal - the king of clay/FO - has said this....
i think wimbledon/tennis and masters/golf is almost perfect parallel. or at least very good parallel
