Tiger Woods has achieved everything a pro golfer can to be regarded as the greatest player of all time. His list of accolades includes 82 professional wins and an end number of records. However, despite his untouchable feats in the sport, one trophy in Woods’ illustrious trophy cabinet is still missing.
The golf world is ready to witness Tiger Woods compete in a PGA Tour event for the first time in nearly three years. He last participated in the 2020 ZOZO Championship.

Nonetheless, the much-anticipated wait will soon end at the upcoming Genesis Invitational. However, upon his return, a surprising stat has been revealed about the Hall of Famer which doesn’t seem to sound familiar with his outstanding resume.
