In a recent auction posted on the Golf Auction’s website, they had put a rare ticket signed by the golfer himself and yes, the fans lost their collective minds over it. This rare ticket stub was from the 1996 B.C. Open Pro-Am which is now considered a piece of golf history. What makes it even more special is that it’s from Woods’s fourth professional start, where he finished third at just 20 years old. As we already established, most of its value lies in the fact that the ticket is signed by Woods himself with a black sharpie and has been authenticated by the Professional Sports Authenticator.
The ticket was originally priced at just $3, however, this ticket stub’s value increased exponentially over the years, but nobody would’ve imagined that the ticket would sell for this much! The minimum bidding price was $200 and after 25 bids, it sold for $4,245.84. No, we’re not kidding! The ticket sold for approximately 1414 times its price which makes it a prized possession for any Tiger Woods fan or golf enthusiast.
