After dominating the golf world for more than three decades, the Golden Bear of golf decided to retire. The maestro of the major championships played his last U. S. Open and PGA Championship in 2000 and last Masters and Open Championship in 2005. Interestingly, Woods won all the four majors, which were Nicklaus’ last ones.

Woods won the 2000 U. S. Open and the 2005 Open Championship without any difficulties with an overall 12-under and 14-under, respectively. However, he had to battle with other golfers in the playoffs in the 2000 PGA Championship and 2005 Masters. Moreover, Nicklaus couldn’t make the cut in any of his last majors.
