The problem with Pete passing Walter is that Walter's a moving target. Pete's got 9 to catch him (33 to 42), but that assumes that Walter's not going to win any more titles. I see Walter reaching at least 45. If he's going to pass him, he really will need to pick up at least five or six in the next two seasons, and he's never done that before. Even when the tour had 30+ events per year, the best he did (at quick glance) is seven in three years (2-3-2 in '84-6).
I see him passing 40, and barring real injury like two years ago, he'll be competitive past 50 years old. I think the titles list will go WRW, PDW, Anthony, Roth, PB3.
If or when PDW reaches that 41st title, will we be hearing about how Anthony "really" has 43 because of the two Masters wins? PDW doesn't have any, so it's hard to point to something like that and try to tear him down like so many people do to WRW.
