Ga. Now let s see a real Grand Slam. Beyond that, there s not much left in golf to occupy Tiger Woods. He s already crammed a career s worth of achievement into a half-dozen years. He s cleared the horizon of rivals.
History is the last challenger still standing.
Ten names remain ahead of him on that list of major winners, topped by Jack Nicklaus and the 18 titles beside his name. The earliest Woods could catch Nicklaus, assuming he wins every major staged between now and then, is at the Masters in April 2004. He needs something to aim at between now and then. Woods was already the youngest golfer to accomplish a career Grand Slam. For the moment, Woods ducked the question of whether that constitutes a Grand Slam.
