Tiger Woods won his seventh straight PGA Tour start by winning the Buick Open yesterday. Tiger was quick to point out that his is not a worldwide streak, as he lost a match play tournament in Europe, and came in second place in tournaments in Chile and Japan.
Still, this is an amazing feat considering that many pro golfers have seven wins for their whole career, let alone seven in just one year. Tiger now has 55 PGA Tour wins (77 total) since starting his pro career in 1996. In contrast, Phil Mickelson, the #2 ranked player in the world, has 29 PGA Tour wins (33 total) since turning pro four years earlier in 1992. Damn.
