Tiger Woods: Then & Now

Tiger Woods: Then & Now — From the start of his career, Tiger Woods was a star to watch. After a stellar junior and college career, Tiger started on the PGA tour in 1996. He’s since won 82 PGA Championships, tied for the most titles ever. Throughout his career, he’s taken several extended pauses for his health. In Feb. 2021, he was involved in a near-fatal car accident, leaving him out of commission for over a year. In Apr. 2022 announced he would be competing again.

Through it all, Tiger’s personal life has remained in the spotlight. He married Elin Nordegren in 2004 but the pair divorced in 2010 following his very public cheating scandal. Still, they remained committed to being the best possible co-parents for their daughter Sam, who is 14 and was born in June 2007, and son Charlie, who came along in Feb. 2009 and is 13.

Want to see Tiger throughout his career. Let’s see his evolution over the years.
