As was essentially expected of him since he was a teenager, Tiger Woods<\/a> has set a lot<\/em> of PGA Tour<\/a> records since turning pro in 1996. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For one, Woods leads the tour in all-time earnings, although that mark may not last as long as one might expect once all this new PIF money starts being thrown around. But we'll keep money and the merger out of this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Tiger shares the mark for the most wins in PGA Tour history (82) with Sam Snead, he certainly holds plenty of records outright, including the most consecutive cuts made at a ridiculous 142. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also holds the mark for the lowest scoring average of all time, both for a career and a single season. The latter was unsurprisingly set during his historic 2000 campaign<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And speaking of 2000, that was the year Woods began his unprecedented “Tiger Slam<\/a>,” during which he became the only player in the modern era to hold all four major championships simultaneously. During this stretch, he also became the youngest player to ever win the career Grand Slam<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another mark Tiger set during this successful spell was the PGA Tour record for the most consecutive rounds of par or better, a mark that recently fell — sort of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steve Stricker broke Tiger Woods' record of consecutive rounds at even par or better in PGA Tour-sanctioned events<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
