To reflect on @TigerWoods winning for the first time in over 1,000 days: I'd like to share some truly impressive career stats to date. It's likely some or none of these will be matched again. #TigerWoods #TigerFacts
We're going to focus on the @PGATOUR for this thread. His accolades in other Tours are impressive too but, we'll get to that later.

Remember this number going forward: 332. The number of PGA TOUR starts as a pro.

He made 14 starts as an amateur, making 6 cuts from '92-mid '96
Cuts made: 93.3% of Starts (310)

Top 25s: 78.3% (260)

Top 10s: 58.1% (193)

Wins: 24.1% (80)

He is 3 PGA TOUR wins away from setting the All-Time record
Not adjusting for inflation, Tiger has grossed ~$115M in earnings alone.

He has finished 1st on the money list 10 different times
Tiger Woods was ranked number 1 on the Official World Golf Rankings (est. 1986) for Two Hundred Eighty-One (281) weeks in a row.

He has been ranked number 1 Six Hundred Eighty-Three (683) weeks in total.

That's over 5 years in. a. row. And over 13 years overall.
Tiger Woods was ranked Number 1 for the entirety of Eight (8) different calendar years ('00, '01, '02, '03, '06, '07, '08, '09).

Only two other players have achieved this ONCE (Nick Faldo, '93; Greg Norman, '96)
He currently ranks 13th to close 2018. The #RyderCup does not impact OWGR. #GoUSA
Before we get to the Majors, let's quickly touch on int'l play:

Has won in N. America, Europe, Asia & Australia

Has played in 8 Ryder Cups, including 2018

40 European Tour wins (3rd all time)
The Majors:
Yes, Jack has more but the chase is back on.

Major Starts (incl. 6 amateur starts): 80

Cuts made: 70 (87.5%)
He made 41 cuts of his first 43 starts, incl. 39 in a row from '96-'06

Top 25s: 57 (71.3%)

Top 10s: 40 (50%)

Top 5s: 32 (40%)

Wins: 14 (17.5%) #Tiger
5 players have won the Career Grand Slam in History. 3 current players (Jordan, Rory, Phil) are missing one.

Tiger Woods & Jack Nicklaus are the only two people in history to have completed the Grand Slam 3 different times.
This is by far the most impressive feat of Tiger's career: The Tiger Slam

Winning all 4 modern era (1960-) Majors in 2000-01

The Tiger Slam was never seen before in the modern era and has never been matched since. Not even close.
He didn't just win all 4 in a row he dominated half of them as well

'00 US Open: Won by 15 strokes
'00 British Open: Won by 8 strokes
'00 PGA Champ: Playoff
'01 Masters: Won by 2 strokes

He held the 54-hole lead at every Major
Jack won his 18th major at 46. Tiger Woods is 42. Jack's pro career spanned 26 years. Tiger has been pro for 22.
In conclusion, Tiger is the best to ever tee it up and probably will be the best ever we'll ever see. These stats leave no doubt.

Oh yeah, and he's back. /end
