The Professional Tiger Woods

December 14th, 2009 by admin

At the young age of 21, Tiger Woods signed his first endorsements with Nike and Titleist, and launched his professional career as a golfer.  As if his amateur career wasn’t impressive enough, he has taken the PGA by storm.  One of his great achievements was in 1997 when he was the first African American, and the youngest player, to win the Masters.  Since that time he both ups and downs, but has still managed to match up to some of the best players in PGA history.  He holds the record for being the youngest player to ever achieve the Career Grand Slam, which means he won 4 major championships in one year.  After that, he slumped again, and then came back strong breaking more records and returning to the number one position.  He’s still there.
