Tiger Woods didn’t just leave fans stunned, he often left his fellow pros speechless too.This week marks the seven year anniversary of Tiger Woods’ record-equalling 82nd PGA Tour victory.Woods left Fleetwood in awe in JapanGettySix months – and another knee surgery – on from his remarkable Masters triumph, Woods headlined the inaugural Zozo Championship in Japan in October 2019.Expectations for the 15-time major winner had been tempered following his fifth knee operation just nine weeks prior and hopes of another Woods win hit the skids early in his first round.Teeing off alongside Tommy Fleetwood and Satoshi Kodaira at Accordia Golf Narashino Country Club, Woods bogeyed his opening three holes and looked completely out of sorts.What happened next was vintage Tiger.Birdies at his 5th, 6th, 7th and 9th holes saw him recover to make the turn under par.He then rattled off five more birdies coming in to card an opening 64 to top the leaderboard.Woods showcased his supreme iron play and ice cold putting to the fullest and left his playing partners in awe.Fleetwood said at the time: “It was a cool atmosphere. I loved being there.“His start, it was interesting. You never know what a round of golf is going to unfold and he hit it in the water off the first, hooked a tee shot off the next, and then he bogeyed the next and he was 3 over.“But from that point on, it probably is the best round of golf I’ve ever watched. Woods won his 82nd PGA Tour event in JapanGetty“Like just the way he conducted it, the way he played, the control he had of his golf ball. “I shook his hand and I was like, ‘Tiger that was really good today’. And he just looks at me and he went, ‘How about that, huh?’ with that big grin of his. “And at that point I was like, man, even he knows it was so good. So yeah, it was very, very impressive.”Kodaira, who has spent most of his career on the Japan Golf Tour and was rewarded in 2019 with a spot in the marquee group alongside Woods, also took it all in.He said: “He’s my idol so it was quite nerve-wracking playing with him, but I definitely learned a lot by just being around him.The crowds were huge for Woods in JapanGetty“While it’s hard for me to say it was a great couple days with the way I played, it was a huge opportunity for me to spend some meaningful time around him.“To me there’s nobody bigger or better than him, so to play with him was just so exciting. But also at the same time, realizing that he’s also watching me play as well made me extremely nervous.”Woods’ opening 64 was followed by the same score in the second round before a weekend 66 put him in the perfect position for victory.Bad weather forced a Monday finish but Woods held off Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama to win by three strokes and make yet more history.The win moved him level with Sam Snead in having the most PGA Tour victories of all-time.Woods won the 2019 Zozo ChampionshipGetty Images - GettySadly, due to yet more injuries and off-the-course issues, Woods has not been able to take the record outright and has not played since missing the cut at the 2024 Open.Woods recently made headlines by returning to the course, clipping balls away at a charity function, with his swing looking as impressive as ever.Another elite-level return could well be on the cards next year.But for now, memories of that display in Narashino will come flooding back this week and that’ll do just fine.
