A rejuvenated Tiger Woods will head into the New Year excited knowing he’s won six of his 14 Major Championship titles on three of the four 2019 host venues.
Former world No 1 Woods made a successful return to golf this year after missing most of the previous two seasons through injury.
While Woods finished his season with a dramatic, emotional win in the Tour Championship in Atlanta in September, he fell short in the season’s Majors, tying for sixth at the British Open and finishing runner-up at the PGA Championship.
Next year however Woods’ Major campaign will feature three stops on courses where he was won before.
As well as four victories in the Masters at Augusta National, Woods has also won at Pebble Beach, venue for the US Open, and Bethpage Black in New York’s Long Island, which is hosting the PGA Championship.
Woods said Tuesday his performances in the final two Majors of 2018 suggested he was close to winning his 15th big one.
“What I did in the last two major championships, I gave myself a chance to win both of them and I was right there,” Woods said in Albany, where he was speaking ahead of this week’s Hero World Challenge.
