Golf Swing Aids
The major championships are the four most prestigious men's tournaments of the
year. In chronological order they are:The Masters, the U.S. Open, The Open Championship
(referred to in North America as theBritish
Open) and the PGA Championship.
The fields for these events include the top several dozen golfers from all over
the world. The Masters has been played at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia since its inception in
1934. It is the only major championship that is played at the same course each year. The U.S. Open and PGA
Championship are played at courses around the United States, while The Open Championship is played at courses in
the UK.
The number of major championships a player accumulates in his career has an impact
on his stature in the sport. Jack Nicklaus is considered to be the greatest golfer of all time, largely because he
has won a record 18 professional majors, or 20 majors in total if his two U.S. Amateurs are included. Tiger Woods, who
may be the only golfer in the foreseeable future likely to challenge Nicklaus's record, has won 14
professional majors (17 total if his three U.S. Amateurs are included), all before the age of 33. (To put
this total in perspective, Nicklaus had won 11 professional majors and two U.S. Amateurs by his 33rd
birthday, and did not win his 15th professional major until he was 35.) Woods also came closest to winning all four
current majors in one season (known as a Grand Slam completed first by Bobby Jones) when he won them
consecutively across two seasons: the 2000 U.S. Open, Open Championship, and PGA Championship; and the 2001
Masters. This feat has been frequently called the Tiger Slam.
Prior to the advent of the PGA Championship and The Masters, the four Majors were
the U.S. Open, the U.S. Amateur, the Open Championship, and the British Amateur. These were the four that Bobby
Jones won in 1930 to become the only player ever to have earned a Grand Slam.
