AGGIELANO
SOTOGRANDE, Spain (AP) —
Tiger Woods broke into a wide grin
when asked how he could possibly
top this year — a major champi
onship, eight titles on the tour, $6
million in winnings and a Ryder
Cup victory for good measure.
Then he turned serious.
“I can promise you, I will con
tinue to work,” he said.
While the rest of the PGA Tour
goes home for the winter to digest
Woods’ latest win of the just-con
cluded season, he will continue
with three tournaments in the
Pacific that could determine how
long he can keep his amazing
streak alive.
The 23-year-old won his fourth
consecutive tournament Sunday in
the American Express
Championship, the most since Ben
Hogan won four straight in 1953.
After a clinic yesterday at
Valderrama Golf Club, Woods was
off to Taiwan to defend his title in
the Johnnie Walker Classic. After
that, he heads to Malaysia to play
in the World Cup with Mark
O’Meara. The week after, he winds
his way to Hawaii for the PGA
Grand Slam of Golf.
As far as consecutive victories
on the PGA Tour, he will not be
able to build on that until the
Mercedes Championship at the
start of next year.
For a player who became golf’s
first $6 million man after winning
eight times this year — the most
since Johnny Miller won eight in
1974 — Woods was relatively sub
dued after his playoff victory over
Miguel Angel Jimenez at
Valderrama.
One reason for that is his work is
not done — and not just the three
tournaments in the next three weeks.
He is a work in progress. The
scary thing is, the work is just
beginning.
Where will that lead? The possi
bilities are endless. Woods has won
eight out of his 11 tournaments,
including a victory against a world-
class field in Germany in May.
Since then, his worst finish was
in the Sprint International, a tie for
37th, the week after winning the
PGA Championship.
‘To play week after week, and
then to win on top of that, it is
draining,” he said. “It was a great
way to end the year. And hopeful
ly, next year I’ll play the same type
of golf and we’ll see about the
number of victories, but see if I can
continue to improve.”
The turning point came in May,
the week before the Byron Nelson
Classic, when all the refinements
he has made in his swing the past
18 months finally started to make
sense.
Since then, his highest round
has been a 74 — and that includes
the U.S. Open and British Open.
Twenty-three of his 40 rounds have
been in the 60s.
That is a far cry from his spring,
when he went 15 consecutive
