Tiger Woods begins his 301st PGA Tour event Thursday at the Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village three weeks after collecting his 78th career PGA Tour victory at The Players Championship and the world No. 1 is tantalizingly close to yet another monumental milestone 2 000 strokes under par. Using official stats from PGATour.com we ve compiled Tiger Woods career score to par in official PGA Tour events and it s low.
Woods first competed on tour at the 1992 Nissan Los Angeles Open but he didn t finish a calendar year under par until 1996. In the fall of the 1996 season Woods won his first PGA Tournament the Las Vegas Invitational with a score of 27 under par. In Woods most dominant year to par 2000 he won nine PGA Tour events including three majors and finished second four times. In 2002 Woods finished every PGA Tour event he played in under par a feat he has never replicated.
Woods is well under par in every one of golf s four majors except the U.S. Open where he has finished the tournament under par just three times in 17 attempts. In each of those three years 2000 2002 and 2008 Woods won the tournament.
