Golf has seen various spectacular seasons being played by multiple professionals. But probably the 2000 PGA Tour season stands out due to the stellar performance by one of the famous names in golf, Tiger Woods. Moreover, let us dive deeper and look at Woods’ fantastic performance during the 2000 season.

Playing consistent golf is among the formidable skills to master. But the 15-time major championship winner proved the fact wrong during the 2000 PGA Tour, roughly 22 years back in the timeline. Tiger dominated every event he played and got excellent results.

It was the same year he achieved the Tiger Slam in golf with the help of his former caddie Steve Williams. To complete the incredible feat, Woods won three of the remaining major championship events in the year, namely the PGA Championship, the U.S. Open, and the Open Championship.

Apart from these three wins, he won the 2001 Masters to become the first professional to win the career grand slam in the modern era.

Throwback to Tiger Woods’ incredible 2000 PGA Tour season

He played 20 events in the 2000 Tour season, and out of the 20 starts, he won nine events, including the three major championships events. He also won a non-official event, the World Golf Championship- EMC World Coup.

At the same time, the World Golf Hall of Fame member finished four times in the second or runner-up position on the leaderboard and ended once in the third position in the season. Surprisingly, he made all the 20 cuts that season. As a result, the former World Number One did not have a single missed cut that year.

The former World Number One one had 17 top 10 finishes and 20 top 25 finishes in the particular PGA Tour season. As a result, Tiger played probably one of the greatest seasons in his long and illustrious career as a golf professional. Moreover, with his nine wins, he joined the list of legends of the game like Byron Nelson, Sam Snead, and Ben Hogan for most wins in a single season.

The golf legend won the 2000 Open Championship at the home of golf, St. Andrews. He ended the major championship event with an overall score of 19-under-par. As a result, Tiger won the event with a whopping eight-shot margin. Moreover, he carded a final round of three-under-par, 69 to finish on the top of the leaderboard.

Woods’ final round of 69 included one birdie and nine pars on the opening nine holes. As a result, he moved out in one-under-par, 36. The American professional made three birdies and one bogey on the back nine to end his round. Do you think he will play the Open this year?
