Tiger Woods, Who Is 3 Majors Short of Jack Nicklaus’ Record, Once Revealed What’s Stopping Him From Achieving It in the New Reality

Tiger Woods is a legendary golfer who is very close to breaking the record of the outstanding golfer, Jack Nicklaus. But will he be able to break it? In 2020, he revealed why he was lagging and could not break the record. The 15-time major championship winner had the chance to win his 16th at PGA Championship 2020. However, after he shot a third round 72, his chances of winning were over. 

In an interview in 2020, the major championship winner accepted that he does not have many major championships left to fulfill his dream. His lifelong goal has been to break his record of Nicklaus of 18 major wins. Today he stands just three majors shy of breaking the record. But why does he feel that no majors are left? Let’s find out.

Is Tiger Woods out of the majors?

The reporter asked Tiger Woods if he thought he was running out of majors to win, and his reply shocked everyone. According to him, the golf course was getting bigger and longer. Therefore, it was getting harder with every passing day. And since he turned professional in 1996, only a few majors are left to play and win.

“There are not as many as when I first started playing! The reality is that the golf courses are getting bigger, they are getting longer,” said Woods. He also holds the margins responsible. He said the margin between making a cut and leading grew smaller in 2020.

According to him, the changes have made winning harder. You will find the same guys every time you look at the leaderboard. Woods agreed that those guys might not always be in the same order, but you will always see familiar names. The 82-time PGA tour winner believes that these handfuls of players are experts. They know how to win a big event on a larger field.
