Tiger Woods is widely regarded as one of the greatest golfers in history—and possibly the best to ever play in the modern era. His record-breaking career includes 15 major championship titles, 82 PGA Tour wins (tied with Sam Snead), and 11 PGA Player of the Year honors. His sheer dominance throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s, especially during the iconic “Tiger Slam”—when he held all four major championships at once—cemented his legendary status in the sport.
Here’s why Tiger Woods is often seen as the greatest:
Major Championships: With 15 major wins, Woods is second only to Jack Nicklaus, who holds 18.
PGA Tour Wins: Tied with Sam Snead, Woods shares the record for most PGA Tour victories at 82.
Dominance and Milestones: Tiger shattered countless records, including most consecutive cuts made, lowest career scoring average, and most seasons topping the money list.
Influence on the Sport: His talent and charisma brought a wave of new energy to golf, attracting younger audiences and inspiring future stars.
Career Grand Slam: Woods is among only five golfers in history to complete a career Grand Slam—and he did it as the youngest player ever.
Tiger Slam: The only golfer to ever hold all four major titles at once, accomplished across the 2000 and 2001 seasons.
A prominent ranking of the 100 best golfers ever still fuels debate. While Jack Nicklaus leads in major victories, many believe Tiger’s dominance, cultural impact, and game-changing presence give him the edge. Regardless of where you stand, Tiger Woods’ legacy is undeniably one of greatness.

Well, I’ve got a partial wedge here. It’s 77 yards. Uh, I’m already thinking it’s my 60. I normally hit my 60 about 92 yards. Uh, this being 77, obviously, got to take a little bit off of it. I don’t play by any kind of clock system, so I don’t understand how people do that or even a percentage. Uh, I do everything on feel of my hands and my body and being connecting with the shot. I’m seeing this shot, no trot there. I like to play little soft draws with it. This shot is sitting up being 77 yards slightly flighted. I’m going to feel 75 for me. I start seeing the shot whether I want to play cut or draw where I want the ball to end up. Where’s the easiest putt from trouble, water, bunkers, slopes, tears, what have you. But I’m starting to feel it in my hands back here behind the ball. I still have a target that I’ve picked out a little aiming spot. But once I build a stance, make adjustments based on how I feel, wind, whatever may come up. I just may feel more adrenaline ball maybe going to go further or it’s cold and I’m a little stiff. Not going to go as far. So, I’ll make those adjustments as I get over the golf [Music]
