Woods was a child prodigy who began playing golf at the age of two. In 1978, he putted against comedian Bob Hope in a television appearance on the Mike Douglas Show. At age three, Woods shot a 48 over nine holes at the Navy Golf Club in Cypress, California, and at the age of five years, he appeared in Golf Digest and on ABC’s That’s Incredible.

At age 15, Tiger Woods became the youngest U.S. Junior Amateur Open golf history. He would win the tournament three times over the event which made him the only multiple winner and the youngest. Continuing his career record, Woods was the youngest to win the Amateur Championship of the United States who have purchased a ticket on the PGA Masters. He committed to making him the 41st only amateur to make the cut.

His professional career has been equally prolific. Immediately after pro tour, Tiger signed endorsement deals with the $ 60 million with Nike and Titleist. He played his first round of professional golf at the Grand Milwaukee Open. It places tied for 60th in his pro debut, but went to win two events in the next three months, and qualify for the Tour Championship.

Woods rose to first place in the Official World Golf Rankings for the first time. Tiger Woods reached that in his 42nd week as a professional – the fastest ever ascent to the No. 1 ranking.
