Odds of Tiger Woods Breaking Jack Nicklaus’ Record of 18 Majors Wins Set at 20-1

• Tiger Woods is coming off his incredible 15th career major championship
• Tiger is focused on surpassing Jack Nicklaus’ all-time record of 18 majors
• Is it worth placing a wager on the Big Cat to get it done?

Hear the roar of the Tiger because it is back, baby. Not only did Tiger Woods end his 11-year major drought, he slipped into his fifth career green jacket and posted major victory #15 at Augusta National.

The narrative is now squarely centered around whether or not Woods can catch the Golden Bear’s all-time record of 18 major titles, and you can bet on that very topic.

Tiger Woods is Back in a Big way

Tiger Woods has proven to himself – and everybody else – that he can get it done again on the biggest stage, which is a scary sign for the rest of the tour. Provided he stays healthy, he’s going to have plenty of chances to add to his major haul.

The next twelve major championship venues are extremely friendly for Tiger. He’s won major titles on seven of them, and also won at Harding Park at the 2005 WGC-American Express Championship (2020 PGA Championship venue).

In the immediate future Tiger will have several chances to win majors on courses he’s tasted success at. At 43, he’s older than when most golfers win majors, but he’s not like everybody else. His 2019 tour stats are as strong as ever, with the exceptions being a middle of the road putter and driver.

Will Tiger Surpass Nicklaus?

Yes. Tiger won a major championship with arguably his A-minus game at Augusta National, where he methodically plodded his way around the course. There’s another gear there that we were so accustomed to seeing in his heyday.

I can’t thank my family, friends and fans enough for their support. Having my family by my side today is something I will never forget. To not only be able to play again, but to be able to win again, is something I will forever be grateful for. This jacket sure is comfortable. pic.twitter.com/LsOUX2dWH1

Equipped with the knowledge that he can win again, and perhaps more importantly the field also knowing he can get it done, the mystique that Tiger previously exuded is back. It can almost certainly be expected to come back again at least once a year in the four biggest tournaments for years to come, provided he stays healthy.
