Tiger Wood admits ‘I didn’t really have most of my events,’ reveals the one where he did | Golf News and Tour Information

Want to hear something scary? Tiger Woods – billionaire golf GOAT, winner of 82 PGA Tour events and 15 majors, owner of countless mind-blowing statistics like that– believes that most weeks he “didn’t really have it”.

On Wednesday, the PGA Tour released a fascinating conversation with Woods. In their brand new PGA Tour Studios cinema, they screened various highlights from Woods’ decorated career, soliciting the ideas and emotions of Mr. Sun Day Red. Even though most of Woods’ answers were variations the same tigers We heard over and over again, about six minutes into the video, that he made the almost absurd revelation that most weeks, even those that ended with him lifting a trophy, he almost had the feeling of not succeeding.

“People are probably surprised to hear that,” Woods said with a wry smile. “But for most of my events, I didn’t really have it. Those (the events that he did I have it) are those that I have won by a lot. But most of them were just hanging on, not making a double, but making a key par save. That’s most of the events I’ve won.

So, in which tournament did Tiger feel like all systems were on at once? While Tiger admits he did “very well” at the 1997 Masters and the 2000 US Open at Pebble Beach, he remembers the 2000 British Open at St. Andrews as “the best I’ve ever successful “.

“I felt like I had the ball on a string,” Woods said. “I could do anything I wanted.”

However, you don’t have to take his word for it. The proof was that week, as Woods shot 67-66-67-69 to win by eight shots. His final score of -19 was the lowest score in major history for 15 years until Jason Day beat him by one stroke at the 2015 PGA Championship. More importantly, Woods’ triumphant Open Championship in 2000 made him the youngest golfer to ever achieve a career Grand Slam and served as the second leg of his infamous “Tiger Slam”, in which Woods won four consecutive majors, holding all titles simultaneously.

We’re sure there were other weeks where Woods “had it” – the guy loves underselling almost as much as he loves winning – but who are we to quibble? If the Big Cat says it is so, then it is. End of story.
