World Golf Hall of Fame Class of 2021: Who Are the Other Inductees Besides Tiger Woods?

Tiger Woods is back swinging a golf club just nine months after he suffered a devastating single-car crash. Woods has thrilled fans with his rapid recovery pace, but there is also other news that has absolutely delighted his supporters. There is now a solid date on when Woods will be inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame. 

Tiger Woods will soon add another feather to his already illustrious cap. Getting inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame is a dream for many pros, but in Woods’ case, it was always inevitable. The only cause for concern was “when.” 

Of course, for a man who has won 15 majors and 82 PGA Tour events, the date should have come sooner. However, the pandemic slowed things down, and just like every other organization, the PGA Tour had to take precautionary steps to avoid the spread. 

But now, we will get to see Woods officially inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame on March 9, 2022. 

Who are the rest of the inductees who will share the stage with Tiger Woods?

Back in 2020, the World Golf Hall of Fame inducted four people into its coveted class. Woods was the most popular name on the list, followed by Susie Maxwell Berning, Tim Finchem, and the late Marion Hollins. 

Susie Berning is an LPGA Tour legend, who clinched four major championships during her playing career in the 60s and the 70s. Berning is 80 years old now and completed on the women’s tour for more than three decades. 

74-year-old Tim Finchem is next on the list and has earned the Hall of Fame badge owing to his services for the upliftment of the PGA Tour. Finchem served as the commissioner of the PGA Tour from 1994 to 2016 and was replaced by Jay Monahan the subsequent year. 

The late Marion Hollins is immensely credited for the development of women’s golf in the early years. Hollins was a pioneer, and she accomplished a lot both on and off the course. Hollins was also the 1921 U.S. Women’s Amateur Champion. 

The Hall of Fame ceremony will take place on March 9, 2022, at the PGA Tour’s corporate headquarters in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. Besides the HOF inductions, a newly formed lifetime achievement award will also be presented to Dick Ferris and Peter Ueberroth.
