Alright, so the other day, I was thinking about that golf dude, Tiger Woods. You know, the guy who’s like a big deal in golf? I was curious about this “handicap” thing in golf and how it relates to him.
So, I started digging around. Turns out, this handicap thing is like a way to even the playing field for golfers. But here’s the kicker: Tiger Woods, that guy, he’s so darn good that when he went pro, he didn’t even need a handicap. I mean, pros like him don’t use it in their big tournaments.
- First off, I had to figure out what a handicap even is.
- Then, I looked into Tiger Woods’ early days.
- And finally, I checked out his performance at his best.
My Deep Dive into Tiger Woods’ Handicap
Okay, so from what I found, when Tiger was just starting out, he had a handicap of +8. Yeah, you heard that right, +8! That means he was already pretty amazing even back then. They called him a young prodigy and everything.
But get this, when he was at the top of his game, his handicap went up to more than +9. That’s just insane! It’s like he was playing a whole different game than everyone else. I read somewhere that he’s won like 15 major championships and led the money list in ten different seasons. The guy’s a legend, no doubt about it.
So, after all this digging, I realized that Tiger Woods is just on another level. I mean, he’s so good that he made the whole handicap system seem kinda pointless, at least for him. It’s like, he’s not just playing golf, he’s redefining it.
