That's how good Tiger was back in the day....8 tournaments without a win and everyone is saying he was slumping lol

[aaronchan]

he was 4 strokes ahead of mickelson, then birdied 3 of the last 5 holes (including the 72nd hole) to win by one... what a finish... that approach shot from the rough was CLUTCH.

"Sergio's engaging smile and winning personality has made him in instant fan favourite." Wow, that's how you know it's the early days in America!

Definitely the most hilarious "slump" in sports history.
Everyone knows Tiger always went into each tournament expecting to win every time, and that 2000 season was so good, he'd made everybody else think that way too.
One of the classic symptoms of being the GOAT. Makes me think of every time Tom Brady's had two poor games in a row throughout the last seven years, the media starts writing him off and he meets them in the Superbowl every single time.

42:01 even Arnold Palmer knew this cat was cold blooded!!!

18:08 LOL biggest gambler 😂😂”he’ll gamble whether the sun comes up”

[joman]

Jeez this was almost 20 years ago, man time flies.

[yamamancha]

During Tiger's 8 tournament "slump", he had 5 Top 5, 1 Top 10, and 2 Top 15 finishes. lol

8:00 this was Tiger’s best swing of the week. Insanely good shot

[timezup]

I have tried thru the years to give Garcio the respect I'm sure he probably deserves at times but I struggle with it!

[annyeongtindanyo]

One of the most satisfying win of Tiger because he was able to birdie the 18th, got the lead back for the win plus its the hardest hole of the tournament. Nobody can be better than that. Lol!

[darknightemperor]

Tiger’s second shot on the Par 4 (18th) has to be top 10 greatest shot he’s ever had

[cherryblossom]

DOERS (Tiger, the most exciting and successful golfer over the past 25yrs) DO; while TALKERS (media commentators) just BLURB because they CAN'TDO!! Bravo Tiger! You had the last laugh and a WIN!🎉 15:34

[papoy]

after watching this several times, by the crowd's reaction to Tiger's incredible putt at 18. they wanted Phil to win.

[cyberslumz]

I love theze videos… thank u editorz 🙏🏽

Tiger captured the imagination of the world

[martinjean.pierre]

Tiger is a golf ace, his 20-year-old golf course and to this day 40 and +
he has gained everything by hard work of perseverance and rigor he is
the one who embodies the hero of young golfers, becoming disadvantaged
neighborhoods, c is a perfectionist who thinks that to win, competition
is his spearhead the win has taken everything

[stevej]

I am amazed by how small the crowds are. Gosh, it would have been a treat to watch with that little of crowd compared to today's and the last decade crowds

[kalebzehr]

Phil looked robbed lol. I can only imagine what he thinks his career could have been if Eldrick never played golf.

[sonny]

I remember this win, the Tiger slump back then was such big news. I miss those days.
