Early Life and Career

Tiger Woods was born on December 30, 1975, in Cypress, California. His father, Earl, was a Green Beret and his mother, Kultida, was a Thai immigrant. Woods began playing golf at the age of two and quickly showed a natural talent for the game.

By the time he was 12 years old, Woods had won numerous junior tournaments and was considered one of the best young golfers in the world. He turned professional in 1996 at the age of 20 and quickly became one of the most successful golfers on the PGA Tour.

Dominance of the Sport

In 1997, Woods won his first major championship, the Masters Tournament. He went on to win 14 more major championships, including the Masters four times, the U.S. Open four times, and the British Open three times.

Woods also won numerous other PGA Tour events, including the PGA Championship four times and the Players Championship eight times. He was ranked number one in the world for a record 683 weeks.

Controversies

Woods' life and career have also been filled with controversy. In 2009, he was involved in a car accident that led to revelations about his extramarital affairs. The scandal led to Woods losing several major sponsorships and taking a break from golf.

Woods returned to golf in 2010 and has since won several more tournaments. However, he has never regained the same level of dominance that he had before the scandal.
