Woods in 2007

Career records and statistics

  1. Woods has won 82 official PGA Tour events, tied with Sam Snead also 82, and nine ahead of Jack Nicklaus's 73 wins. (See List of golfers with most PGA Tour wins.)
  2. Woods has won 15 majors, second all time behind Jack Nicklaus' 18.
  3. Woods is 14–1 when going into the final round of a major with at least a share of the lead.
  4. Woods scoring average in 2000 is the lowest in PGA Tour history, both adjusted, 67.79, and unadjusted, 68.17. [1]
  5. Woods has the lowest career scoring average in PGA Tour history.
  6. Woods has amassed the most career earnings of any player in PGA Tour history (even after inflation is considered).
  7. Woods is one of five players (along with Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, and Jack Nicklaus) to have won all four professional major championships in his career, known as the Career Grand Slam, and was the youngest to do so. [2]
  8. Woods is the only player to have won all four professional major championships in a row, accomplishing the feat in the 2000–2001 seasons. This feat became known as the "Tiger Slam".
  9. Woods set the all-time PGA Tour record for most consecutive cuts made, with 142. The streak started in 1998, he set the record at the 2003 Tour Championship with 114 (passing Byron Nelson's previous record of 113 and Jack Nicklaus at 105) and extended this mark to 142 before it ended on May 13, 2005 at the EDS Byron Nelson Championship. Many consider this to be one of the most remarkable golf accomplishments of all time, given the margin by which he broke the old record and given that during the streak, the next longest streak by any other player was usually only in the 10s or 20s. [3] [4] [5] [6] When Byron Nelson played far fewer players made the cut in a given event.[ citation needed ]
  10. Woods has won a record 22.8% (82 out of 359) of his professional starts on the PGA Tour.
  11. Woods is the only golfer to have won the U.S. Amateur three consecutive times (1994–1996).

  7. Woods has spent the most consecutive and cumulative weeks atop the world rankings.

  9. Woods' win at the 2005 Open Championship made him only the second golfer (after Nicklaus) to have won all four majors more than once. With his win in the 2008 U.S. Open, Woods joined Nicklaus as the only golfers to win each major at least three times.
  10. Woods' victory at the 2006 WGC-American Express Championship, he became the first player in PGA Tour history to win at least eight times in three different seasons.
  11. Woods' victory in the Buick Invitational in January 2007 placed him 2nd for the longest PGA Tour win streak at 7 (consecutive wins in PGA events entered), trailing only Nelson's streak of 11 wins in 1945.
  12. Woods became the first golfer to win five PGA Tour events five or more times at the 2009 BMW Championship. In order of his accomplishment: WGC-CA Championship, WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, Buick Invitational, Arnold Palmer Invitational, and BMW Championship.
  13. Woods' win at the U.S. Open in 2008 made him the sixth person to win the U.S. Open three or more times, the first person to win a PGA Tour tournament on the same course seven times, and the first person to win two tournaments at the same golf course in the same season.

Masters Tournament

  • In 1997 Woods set records for the lowest aggregate and to-par score with 270 strokes (18 under par); the record was tied by Jordan Spieth in 2015 and broken by Dustin Johnson in 2020, who finished with 268 strokes (20 under par).
  • Woods holds the record for the largest margin of victory at the Masters: 12 strokes (1997)
  • Woods became the youngest winner in 1997 at the age of 21 years, 104 days; in 2019 he became the second oldest player to win the Masters at 43 years old.
  • His win made him the first winner of The Masters, or any other (under-50) men's major, of African or Asian descent.
  • After a front-nine 40 in the first round (four over par), Woods played the final 63 holes 22-under par (1997)
  • He played 72 holes without a single three-putt[ when? ]
  • During his 2005 win, Woods set a record with the lowest back-to-back total for two rounds: 131 (65-66). The record was broken by Jordan Spieth (64-66) in 2015.
  • In 2024 Woods made the Masters cut for the 24th consecutive year, breaking the record held by Fred Couples and Gary Player who had 23. [14]

U.S. Open

  • Woods holds the record for the largest margin of victory at the U.S. Open based on 72 holes (no playoffs): 15 strokes (2000). (In 1929, Bobby Jones had a margin of victory of 23 strokes, but that tournament was played over 108 holes, as a 36-hole playoff was played as he and Al Espinosa were tied; Jones (141) defeated Espinosa (164) in the playoff.)
  • Also in 2000, Woods became the first player to finish a U.S. Open at double digits under par. (In 1992, Gil Morgan was the first ever to be double digits under par at any stage of a U.S. Open, but failed to finish in double digits under par, and indeed failed to win that event, with Tom Kite winning instead.)
  • Woods was the only player to finish under par at the following U.S. Opens:
  • With his win in 2008, Woods equaled Jack Nicklaus' feat of winning each major at least three times.
    • The 2008 win is the final U.S. Open to play more than 90 holes (91), as subsequent playoffs are now only two holes.

The Open Championship

  • Woods shares the record for largest margin of victory at a post-1900 Open Championship: 8 strokes (2000)
  • Woods became the fifth player to achieve the Career Grand Slam, and the youngest player (24 years, 206 days) to do so, breaking the mark held by Nicklaus (26 years, 6 months at the 1966 Open)
  • He became the fastest to win all four majors – in his 93rd sanctioned tournament, compared with 125 for Nicklaus
  • He became the youngest to win a fourth major championship, breaking the mark held by Nicklaus (25 years, 80 days at the 1965 Masters)
  • In 2006, Woods became the first player to win the Open Championship in back-to-back years since Tom Watson in 1982/1983
  • He became the first golfer since Watson in 1982 to win the U.S. Open and Open Championship in the same year

PGA Championship

  • With his 2006 PGA Championship win, Woods became the only golfer to have won all 4 majors by at least 5 strokes
  • Woods was the only player in the stroke-play era (since 1958) to repeat as PGA champion until Brooks Koepka equaled this feat in 2019.
  • Woods' wins at Medinah in 1999 and 2006 make him the only player to win the PGA Championship twice on the same course.
  • Woods’ second round 63 in the 2007 PGA Championship tied the record for second lowest single-round score in major championship history
  • Woods is the only player to win the PGA Championship back-to-back on two different occasions: 1999–2000 and 2006–2007.
