Tiger Woods Receives 2024 Bob Jones Award | Watch Live

The United States Golf Association has selected Tiger Woods as the recipient of this year’s Bob Jones Award, the USGA’s highest honor, in recognition of his commitment to sportsmanship and respect for golf’s time-honored traditions. Watch Woods' acceptance speech live from Pinehurst on Tuesday, June 11, prior to the 2024 U.S. Open.
“This award goes beyond playing performance, recognizing the lasting impact of one person’s journey that has forever changed the image and growth of golf,” said Mike Whan, CEO of the USGA. “There are very few who stand alongside Tiger Woods in terms of on-course accomplishments, and he is in a class of his own when it comes to the impact he has made on the game and future generations who will play it.”
The USGA is a mission-based golf organization whose purpose is to unify the golf community through handicapping and grassroots programs; to showcase the game’s best talent through the U.S. Open, U.S. Women’s Open and 13 other national championships and our museum; to provide unbiased global governance with The R&A through the playing, equipment and Amateur Status rules; and to advance issues important to golf’s future, with a focus on driving sustainability, accessibility and inclusion. As a nonprofit association, our work and our team are driven to act for the good of the game. For more, visit www.usga.org.

This is a great award for Tiger. Well deserved to say the least. A great player. A person who has shown compassion for others.

Tiger has made big golfing companies that he dosen't get any endorsements from, a huge amount of money over the years and not been paid a dime. The world of golf owes Tiger a lot, right across the board. He deserves all of his awards, especially this one.

Tiger Woods won the 1997 Masters by 12 shots, the 2000 US Open by 15 shots , and the 2000 British Open by 8 shots. At one point in 2001 he held all 4 major championship trophies at once along with the Players Championship. Tiger Woods has won 23% of the professional golf tournaments in which he has entered. He has 82 PGA tour victories, 3 U.S. Junior amateurs, 3 United States amateurs, and 15 major championships. He spent 281 consecutive weeks as the number 1 player in the world and 683 total weeks as the number 1 player in the world. All of this in the context of the deepest and most talented fields that have ever played professional golf. He is absolutely the greatest golfer to have ever lived!!

[@pauljcross2289]

Did not compete against the greatest fields....very few golf legends played in Tiger's era

[@Blazen1212]

[@musicseedsinternational999]

Agreed. I grew up a Jack an but Tigers is the best o his generation and I would say of all time.

welp.. im a mess

[@davidnelson5381]

I suppose it's hard to believe Bob Jones wasn't also using his fame to sleep with multiple women during his career. The cameras were not that great back then to capture it, is all. So, as long as he owns it, he's human just like anyone else.

[@pauljcross2289]

Part of the selection criteria is character....America lately, lauds seriously flawed people as 'great men'..

[@Jrgoldenbear]

Did he call her Mommy?

[@sswan9689]

Yes, because that is his mommy.

Do you not know who tf that is? Gtfo.

[@jasend8727]

Sorry, but he seriously lacks character! So therefore he should get zero respect. He might have 'sportsmanship' with his fellow players, but I've heard what he's like behind the scenes. This award is laughable!
