The golf world saw a massive achievement being recorded at the LIV Golf event in Greenbrier on Sunday. The tournament saw Bryson DeChambeau soar past his competitors to cement his place at the top. Moreover, he was able to churn out a feat that even the legend Tiger Woods hasn’t achieved to date.
Ever since the accident in 2021, Tiger Woods hasn’t been much active but he remains unbeatable in many feats. These two feats still remain unattainable by many of the A-listers of the industry at present. Let’s find out more.

Tiger registered his first Masters Tournament win in 1997 after a score of 18-under 270 crowned the golfer as the youngest to win the major in the history of the game. He surprised a field consisting of many professional top players of the time, including Tom Kite, Bernhard Langer, Fred Couples, as he won with the largest victory margin in Masters history while just being 21 years old.
He broke the record of Seve Ballesteros who had registered his Masters win at 23 years old in 1980. Moreover, the golfer remains the youngest player to have won all four major championships by the age of 24. Starting with the major in 1997, he advanced ahead to complete his Career Grand Slam as he won the 1999 PGA Championship scoring 277 (-11), the 2000 US Open with a score of 272 (-12), and the 2000 Open Championship with a score of 19-under-par 269,
These two records can’t be surpassed by the top golfers at present. The current top players, as per OWGR, include Scottie Scheffler (27 years), Rory McIlroy (34) and Jon Rahm (28) and they all are out of the race.
It’s evident that it would now take a new, much younger face to beat Tiger in regard to these two feats. Bryson DeChambeau may have created mayhem in the golfing world but Woods remains the king. Let’s, however, see what DeChambeau did that Woods has never achieved before.
