Since it looks like Tiger won’t be winning anymore majors this year, I thought I’d go back and rank the 14 he’s already won.

14. 2006 PGA - I don’t remember anything about this tournament. Apparently he beat Shaun Micheel by 5 strokes.

13. 2007 PGA - Same as 2006, except I vaguely remember some of it. I think Tiger wore red on Sunday.

12. 2002 Masters - Tiger’s 3rd green jacket, and the one I remember the least about

11. 2005 Open - Tiger’s 2nd British Open win at St. Andrews, he beat Scotland’s Colin Montgomery by 5 strokes

10. 2002 U.S. Open - A 2nd U.S. Open title for Woods. This was the tournament where New Yorkers kept yelling at Sergio to hit the ball.

9. 1999 PGA - The one where Sergio, then El Nino, closed his eyes and hit a miracle shot around a tree. Then lost to Tiger.

8. 2005 Masters - Tiger turns the 16th green into a Nike commercial. My wife and I were house shopping, and I saw it on a black and white television owned by the little old lady whose house we would soon buy.

7. 2000 PGA - Bob May forced a playoff, then Tiger chases his putt across the green and into the hole on the first playoff hole. Of all the Tiger celebrations, this is the hardest to practice in the mirror.

6. 2006 Open - Tiger’s 3rd British Open, and his first major after the death of his father Earl. I think he hit 5-iron off every tee that week.

5. 2001 Master - Woods win his 4th consecutive major and completes the “Tiger Slam”.

4. 2000 Open - Tiger’s first trip to St. Andrews as a professional, he dominates the Old Course and laps the field by 8 strokes.

3. 2000 U.S. Open - Second place was 3 over par, Tiger was 12 under. Unreal.

2. 2008 U.S. Open - Tiger, playing on one leg, goes 4 rounds, then an 18 hole play-off, then one hole of sudden-death to win his 3rd U.S. Open title.

1. 1997 Masters - The one that changed everything. Tiger shatters records, beats the field by 12 strokes, and wins his first Green Jacket.
