With the first major of the year teeing off this week, five-time Masters winner Tiger Woods will be aiming for another fairytale victory at Augusta to move level with Jack Nicklaus’ all-time wins record. With that in mind, we are taking a trip down memory lane and taking a comprehensive look at Tiger Woods’ career record.

Tiger Woods Major Wins & Career Record

Four back surgeries between 2014 and 2018 saw him compete in just one tournament during that time span, as he dropped off the top 1000 golf world rankings.

Nothing highlights Tiger Woods’ other-worldly talent and determination by his staggering renaissance just a year after returning to regular competition in 2019, winning his first major in 11 years at the Masters, 22 years after his first.

His love affair with Augusta is well-documented having been awarded five green jackets throughout his illustrious career, which puts him just one behind Jack Nicklaus’ record, which was perceived to be untouchable.

Although Woods faces a tall order to try and win a 16th major in one of the toughest fields in his 25-year Masters career, THAT 2019 victory was nothing short of miraculous and you simply cannot count him out.
