Fair enough. If the career grand slam is considered "trivia", he's still the closest to Bobby Jones' actual grand slam in 1930.

'''Eldrick Tont Woods''' (born 1975), who goes by his nickname, Tiger, is a professional [[golf]]er. He has won only 1 major golf tournament in the past 10 years.  In his career, he has won 15 major golf tournaments, second only to [[Jack Nicklaus]]' record haul of 18.<ref>Woods is also currently one of only five men -- Woods, Jack Nicklaus, Ben Hogan, Gary Player and Gene Sarazen -- to have achieved the career grand slam of winning all four major titles in the modern era: the [[Masters]], the US Open, the Open Championship and the PGA Championship. Bobby Jones achieved golf's only true (single season) grand slam with victory in the 1930 Open Championship, 1930 US Open, 1930 US Amateur and the 1930 British Amateur.

He is perhaps the most self-centered and overpromoted favorite of the [[liberal media]] in the world.  He appears frequently on magazine covers and Nike ads, and after a gap of eleven years since winning a major tournament, finally regained the [[Masters]] title in 2019.  His remarks to the press are often self-centered.  At the Masters in 2013, he was given merely a two-stroke penalty for a rules infraction that many felt should have resulted in disqualification from the tournament.<ref>http://omg.yahoo.com/blogs/celeb-news/tiger-woods-responds-disqualification-controversy-masters-lindsey-vonn-161536057.html</ref>

Woods' 2000-01 run of four consecutive major titles is the greatest of the modern era. Dubbed the "Tiger Slam" by the media, he won the 2000 US Open, the 2000 Open Championship, the 2000 PGA Championship and the 2001 [[Masters]]. It is currently the closest any golfer has come to replicating Bobby Jones' true (single season) grand slam of the 1930 Open Championship, 1930 US Open, 1930 US Amateur and the 1930 British Amateur (the major titles of his day).<ref>https://www.golf-monthly.co.uk/tour/us-masters/masters-history-records/players-won-golf-grand-slam-154520</ref>

In 2012, the liberal media declared Woods to be a favorite to win the [[Masters]].  In fact, he turned in his worst performance there in 17 years, and his swearing and kicking of a club were captured by a camera.  After he learned that people did not appreciate that, he declared:<ref>http://www.augusta.com/masters/story/news/latest-news/woods-offers-apology-masters-behavior</ref>
