We look back on some of his greatest achievements - from winning four consecutive majors in 2000 and 2001 to earn the 鈥淭iger slam鈥�, being crowned US Open champion at Torrey Pines in 2008 with a broken leg, his unlikely 鈥渞edemption鈥� win at The Masters in 2019 and of course, lifting three Claret Jugs in sensational style.

The Golf Channel鈥檚 Jaime Diaz was one of the first journalists to get to know Tiger Woods at the age of 14. He joins the pod to talk about how he developed into one of the greatest golfers of all-time.
