Woods has a nearly unmatched USGA record, claiming three U.S. Opens (2000, 2002, 2008), three U.S. Junior Amateurs (1991-93) and three U.S. Amateurs (1994-96), which ties him with Bob Jones for the most USGA championships (nine). Woods also owns 15 professional major championships -- he ended an 11-year drought at the 2019 Masters with a one-stroke victory to claim a fifth green jacket -- and now is only three behind Jack Nicklaus (18). His 15-stroke win in 2000 at Pebble Beach remains the largest margin of victory in U.S. Open history. Woods missed the 2014, 2016 and 2017 U.S. Opens due to back surgeries. Woods underwent his fourth back surgery in April of 2017 and finally returned to competitive golf at the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas in December of 2017. After several near-misses at wins in 2018, including the PGA Championship, Woods ended his victory drought at The Tour Championship in Atlanta. As an amateur, he was a member of the 1995 USA Walker Cup Team and 1994 USA World Amateur Team. A seven-time member of the USA Ryder Cup Team, he served as assistant captain for the 2016 Matches. Has competed in nine Presidents Cups, including as a playing captain in 2019.
