Tiger Woods: Career Overview

Eldrick "Tiger" Woods turned professional in 1996 and immediately transformed professional golf into a global spectacle. His combination of power, short-game wizardry, mental toughness, and fierce competitive drive produced a career unlike any in the sport's history. He held the World No. 1 ranking for 683 weeks — more than any golfer in history — and won 82 PGA Tour events, tying the all-time record.

His 2000 "Tiger Slam" — winning the US Open by 15 strokes, The Open by 8, and the PGA Championship, then completing the set with The Masters in 2001 — remains one of sport's greatest sustained periods of dominance. After injuries, personal setbacks, and multiple surgeries threatened to end his career, his 2019 Masters win became one of sport's most remarkable comeback stories.

Record Alert: Tiger's 15-stroke winning margin at the 2000 US Open remains the largest in major championship history. His 2000 season (3 majors) is considered the most dominant in golf history.
