Revolutionary Woods hits 50 still calling the shots
TIGER WOODS, the American superstar who changed golf by winning the 1997 Masters, celebrates his 50th birthday today.
But after 15 Majors, 82 PGA Tour titles and countless surgeries, the biggest name in golf has not yet finished making headlines on and off the golf course.
Woods, who made his PGA Tour debut as a 16-year-old amateur in 1992, was arguably the biggest name in world sport even before he completed the Tiger Slam in 2001 by holding all four Majors.
He was a revolutionary in the middle-aged, middle-class, white sport because he was young, athletic and black. And super cool. Popularity soared and prize money skyrocketed.
