Tiger Woods 18th hole 25 foot birdie putt to win The Arnold Palmer Invitational electrified the golfing community as he tied legendary Ben Hogan with his 64th career PGA Tour victory (3rd all time). The worlds greatest golfer ever is only 32 as he chases after Jack Nicklaus (73 wins) and Sam Snead (82 wins).

Tiger is undefeated in 2008 and has won his last six golf tournaments. Quite an intimidating feat as the rest of the field is left behind gasping for air while trying to climb out of perfect divots. He's now taking aim at Byron Nelson's eleven win streak from 1945.

Woods is in a world of his own. He's the only golfer ever to win all four major Championships in one year. Part of his endless resume includes four Masters Tournament Championships, four PGA Championships, two U.S. Open Championships, two British Open Championships. Countless Player of the Year Awards beginning from his amateur days straight on thru the Pro Tour.

Not too shabby for a kid who was putting with Bob Hope on the Mike Douglass Show at an age of 2 years old!

Tiger Woods career performances earns honors with some of the worlds greatest sports Champions. Babe Ruth transformed baseball. Michael Jordan redefined basketball. Wayne Gretzky rewrote Hockey's record books. Now it's Tigers turn to be King. One of the scariest facts opposing swingers have all realized... this guy hasn't even approached his prime yet!

Records galleries fight to watch him play. Sponsors stand in long lines with their hands out. PGA revenues have piled high. Amateur golfers taking to the sport in record numbers. Tiger's name is on the minds of children learning on the links.

Tiger knows how to handle the spotlight honorably... thrives in pressure packed situations... and, rises to all occasions as a human being. He's been dissected, hounded, honored, scrutinized, theorized, analyzed, emulated, glorified and paparazzied all his life. The fire in his belly continues to burn infinitely and profoundly.

By the time he retires from an illustrious career.... every record will bear the name Tiger Woods.
