 About Woods 關于伍茲

     Eldrick Tont "Tiger" Woods is an American professional golfer whose achievements to date rank him among the most successful golfers of all time. Formerly the World No. 1, he is the highest-paid professional athlete in the world, having earned an estimated $90.5 million from winnings and endorsements in 2010.
     Woods has won 14 professional major golf championships, the second highest of any male player (Jack Nicklaus leads with 18), and 71 PGA Tour events, third all time. He has more career major wins and career PGA Tour wins than any other active golfer. He is the youngest player to achieve the career Grand Slam, and the youngest and fastest to win 50 tournaments on tour. Additionally, Woods is only the second golfer, after Jack Nicklaus, to have achieved a career Grand Slam three times. Woods has won 16 World Golf Championships, and won at least one of those events in each of the first 11 years after they began in 1999.
     Woods held the number one position in the world rankings for the most consecutive weeks and for the greatest total number of weeks. He has been awarded PGA Player of the Year a record ten times, the Byron Nelson Award for lowest adjusted scoring average a record eight times, and has the record of leading the money list in nine different seasons.
     On December 11, 2009, Woods announced he would take an indefinite leave from professional golf to focus on his marriage after he admitted infidelity. His multiple infidelities were revealed by over a dozen women, through many worldwide media sources. Woods returned to competition for the 2010 Masters on April 8, 2010, after a break lasting 20 weeks.
     In July 2010, Forbes announced Woods as the richest sportsman in the world, earning a reported $105m according to them and $90.5m according to Sports Illustrated.
     On October 31, 2010, Woods lost the world number 1 ranking to Lee Westwood. As of mid-April 2011, Woods is ranked #5 in the world. Since late November 2009, when the infidelity scandals began breaking in the media, Woods has been winless worldwide for 17 months, the longest streak without a title of his professional career.
     艾德瑞克·泰格·伍茲是美國高爾夫球手,截至2009年他在世界高爾夫球賽中排名首位,并被公認為史上最成功的高爾夫球手之一。因為在英文中他的綽號"Tiger"的意思是"虎",所以在中文中經常被稱為"老虎"。
     泰格·伍茲孩童時就表現(xiàn)出了非凡的高爾夫天賦,他3歲時就擊出了9洞48桿的成績,然后5歲時又上了《高爾夫文摘》雜志。他在18歲時成為最年輕的美國業(yè)余比賽冠軍,然后又史無前例地在1994,1995和1996年完成了該賽事的帽子戲法。經歷了大大小小10多個賽季,泰格·伍茲一共獲得62個職業(yè)賽事冠軍,其中46個來自美巡賽,10個為大滿貫頭銜。在30歲以前就能獲得這么多大滿貫賽次的高爾夫選手他還是第一個!而在上一代的高爾夫球王--"金熊"尼克勞斯退役之后,泰格已經成了當今高爾夫球界,無可爭辯的王者。從歷史上第一個職業(yè)高爾夫黑人球員,到坐上世界排名第一的寶座,伍茲只用了不到三年的時間,他也成為用最短的時間實現(xiàn)高球大滿貫的最年輕球員。在八年半的職業(yè)生涯當中,伍茲已經奪得了42座PGA巡回賽冠軍獎杯,他一度讓米克爾森(現(xiàn)排名世界第三)這樣的對手不得不在與他比賽前"看心理醫(yī)生以克服恐懼"。
