On July 23, 2000, Tiger Woods achieved one of the most remarkable feats in golfing history by winning the British Open at the Old Course in St Andrews, Scotland. This victory marked his career Grand Slam, as he had already won the U.S. Open, the PGA Championship, and the Masters Tournament.

At the age of 24, Woods became the youngest player ever to complete the career Grand Slam and only the fifth golfer in history to achieve this milestone, joining the elite company of Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, and Jack Nicklaus.

The final round of the tournament was a thrilling display of Woods' golfing prowess. He started the day with a six-stroke lead and never looked back. Despite challenging weather conditions, including strong winds and rain, Woods maintained his composure and shot a solid round of 69, finishing the tournament with a total score of 19-under par, eight strokes ahead of his nearest competitors, Thomas Bjørn and Ernie Els.

As he sank his final putt on the 18th green, the crowd erupted in applause, acknowledging the significance of the moment. Woods embraced his caddie, Steve Williams, and his mother, Kultida, who was present to witness her son's historic achievement.

This victory further cemented Tiger Woods' status as a golfing icon and one of the greatest players of all time. His dominant performance at the 2000 British Open showcased his exceptional talent, mental toughness, and ability to perform under pressure, leaving an indelible mark on the world of golf and sports history as a whole.
