Ratief Goosen shot a 10-under 62 that day, and nearly chased Tiger down (finished 24-under for the tournament to Tiger’s -25). Shows you what guys had to do back then to keep up with him.
The sound of a muscle back blade struck with such speed from the sweetspot is one of the best sounds in sport.
BLAH BLAH ...... SPOKESMAN FOR NIKE ?
@@sharkiesgirl8929 ? Spokesman for Nike? It's an obsolete golf equipment manufacturer.
SHARKIES GIRL more like spokesmen for Miura/Titelist. Pipe down simpleton
“Spokesman”, because I just did my research and have no issue admitting that I was incorrect. BLAH BLAH...
sport
His tee shots were immaculate. Hitting fairway after fairway. Hitting green after green. Spinning of the clubs.
man.. This was Tiger at his most confident... so solid
first bogey
OF THE TOURNAMENT?!?
this guy is insane
A camera man clicked during the down swing in his second shot. He pushed it right. He was NOT impressed with the photographer.
Tiger tried a show off stinger on 19th tee which started his ‘downfall’ ! So close to winning another comp with a bogey free final round / 4 foot putt
Yeah dude early 2000’s Tiger was the best that’s ever played or ever will. Unthinkable
That first swing is utter perfection
It was real good
all of them are tbh
absolute quality content from the european tour channel
Thank you!
His swing in 2002 was so good. I know he scored better in 2000, but the swing was so damn close to perfect as it comes in 2002. Best swing ever on tour if you ask me!
Agreed. Everyone talks about the 2000 season but 2002 was the year he could have won the grand slam. Getting the brunt of a literal storm on day three of the Open effectively ended his chances and, with all due respect to Rich Beem, a journeyman having the week of his golfing life pipped him to the PGA. The Amex here was Woods in cruise control and still beating everyone. Absolutely confident of where the ball was going.
@@jonathanlynch8372 Yep. If you look at the swing right at 4:49 , a long iron off the tee. It's ridiculous...almost cartoonish.
And yet he was not satisfied??????????????????????????????????????????
@@jimmyculp8756 I seem to remember that his Buch Harmon swing damaged his left knee too much...
Agreed!
The birdie at 17 from the oak tree was ridiculous. Right after Retief had posted a 62 to cut the lead to 1. Prime Tiger was something else.
U know it’s ridiculous when the commentator just laughs after a shot 😂
That was a ball striking tour de-force...
The Butch Harmon swing was the best.
The giggles of the announcers are awesome
every swing in this video is perfect
Tiger at his prime, power and accuracy was amazing....
The clubs sound much better than today's equipment, of course he had the swing to make the sound
I hit Titleist DCI. Pure feeling. And the sound is a smack rather than a click.
Honestly I think it has far more to do the audio technology of today vs. ~20 years ago. Tiger basically plays the same irons, we are just usually hearing things in a lot more detail these days. I think there was a lot more saturation and compression on the audio back then which made things sound fatter and not as bright.
Could've easily been 60 or better with those putts that were missed by less than a couple inches. That's the crazy part.
What a beautifully made film
Petition for shot tracer footage of vintage Tiger. Only trouble would be finding and artist qualified for the task.
Best golf ever played
10:41 That sound... More pleasing to my ear than any music ever produced. Such purity.
0:12 0:36 1:23 1:46 2:07 2:47 3:07 3:50 4:50 5:16 5:51 6:38 7:30 7:48 8:44 9:19 9:49 10:42 11:20 11:44 12:33 12:57 13:19 ! 14:09 14:52
Tiger is a beast. Not as good as the old days but still. Nice to see some highlights of the legend himself
Just the sound was perfection…smooth and rhythmic shots - “machine like “ but artistic too. I never tire of watching him take total control of a golf course.
He played really conservative this round, especially off the tee, and he kept the ball in play the whole time. I assume this is why he had one bogey the entire 72 holes, simply because he didn't get ahead of himself and play stupid. He managed his way to victory this tourney, and made the field come to him.
His swing in this era was so mechanically crisp, might be the most aesthetic golf swing of all time.
Indeed
Wow... that was some crazy good golf!
Me 2 years ago
“Golf is boring, who would anyone even want to watch it?”
Me in 2021
“Omg tiger shoots a 66 over 15 years ago!?!? I have to watch it.”
I was at this tournament, great experience. PGA Tour or WGC's need to come back to Ireland soon.
Karl_ unfortunately since American Express left no one is willing to pay for one. Same reason Firestone got the axe, their sponsor (ironically Firestone/Bridgestone) bailed.
When his mechanics were on Tiger was unbeatable.........
Vintage Tiger
This guy laughing like he generally loves every second of watching Tiger Woods play. I know I do
*genuinely
His confidence was through the roof.
Flawless golf...
This to me is peak golfer. No one will ever be as good which seems crazy to say. That swing is just ridiculous
I also miss these all black shoes. What year did he switch to the geriatric wide shoes lol? Damn age
Funny how it’s ESPN graphics with the Euro Tour commentators. ETP either had the week off except for the commentators, or they imported ESPN’s graphics for their own international feed.
Once in a generation type player. Hogan, Nicklaus, Woods. Wonder when the next one will come along.
third in european tour wins without playing on the european tour
Didn't he also lead the European money list but didn't get the title because he didn't play enough tournaments? Found this online: Luke Donald was credited as the first player to win the PGA Tour money title and European Order of Merit in the same season. Woods actually would have done that six times if he had been a European Tour member those years.
@@2badger2 because most years he won more money in majors, WGCs and the Dubai Desert Classic than everyone else did in a full season. From their creation in 1999 until 2009 he won close to 50% of all WGC events played
2002 tiger's swing is the best tiger's swing. Prove me wrong
No argument here. Best swing, perhaps in the history of the game.
Amazing!!
Seriously give your RUclips dude / lady a payrise. Thank you on behalf of everyone that has to suffer the PGA Tour highlights and crap 2-minute videos.
this is how I golf on cloudy days too.
Enough already. You're making PGA tour look like fools with these highlights.
They got so much better, I'm so glad
Who are the European tour commentators for the wgc american express championship on RUclips
7:46 2nd shot into a par five high cut over the trees within 10 feet
7:47 Hips so fast you can hear the quarters in his pockets jingle LMAO....jesus H.
The control and discipline of it all, frankly I sometimes wonder why he ever got away from playing like that, constantly blasting full tilt drives can be hazardous to the scorecard.
And your knees/ back.... hence multiple reconstructive surgeries. Amazing he is where he is after all that
🐐
Classic!
worlds greatest draw of fans for a 4 day stint. Watch the 19 tour championship in Atlanta when the fans followed him up to the 18th "Tears in His eyes I guess" Carl Spackler
Will 2019 be a repeat? 36 holes and we will know. Tough to pick up six strokes in two rounds.
Unfair
what if that kid broke that branch and fell down xD 6:24
Zug75 it looked like Rory
Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson, Jason Day, Rory McElroy, Justin Thomas, Jorden Spieth
14 Majors
Tiger Woods
15 Majors
There is no comparison, Tiger dominated the GPA tour for 12 years, the young generation of today get on a run once in awhile.
1/4 of a 100 under. And he wasn't even wearing his best shade of red for sunday.
Scary thing is some of those putts he missed probably should've gone in
1:24
This course looks sort of easy in my opinion
In some ways yes, some ways no. It's not punishing in terms of driving but the approach shots aren't easy. When you're hitting every green though it's straight forward.
It is, at least compared to the toughest courses on tour, it’s a resort course
Tiger Woods is the MJ of golf and Nicklaus is the Bill Russell, different eras, but clearly the best player is TW. Of all time? all time is not over yet, but for Now, there has not been nor ever will be, probably, another player to have the dominance of TW over a 10 year period (Or MJ) while increasing the fan base to what it is now. When Jack played, you had to be a wealthy white man to be in the game or come from money, there were no black players in college playing golf and certainly if Jack had to play against a field including black players he would not have won the way he did, many of them would out hit him, many of them would have been like TW actually, so golf is only what it is today because of TW and Nicklaus to a degree because he became the motivating factor for TW to dig in and excel.
Well Said
Nuff said
Why would you ever want to change this move? BIG MISTAKE!
Who the hell brings a baby to a golf tournament?
His average par put length is under a foot
Yeah, I'd shoot a lot more 66's if I only had wedge and 9 iron approach shots ;-)
Peter D no you wouldnt😂
@@armanazlan3379 If I was good enough to hit that far, I'd probably be nailing most of those approach shots too. A man can dream, cant he? 💪🏻
Is there a baby crying?
hH
P
Those commentators tho... Boooring!
He was probably smashin some hotties, splittin some fairways on and off the course buddie
