Tiger takes aim at 16th major, PGA win mark at Bethpage

Tiger Woods chases more golf history in next week's 101st PGA Championship at Bethpage Black, the same public course where the 15-time major winner captured the 2002 US Open.

The 43-year-old American superstar completed one of the great comebacks in sports history last month with a dramatic victory at the Masters for his fifth green jacket and first major triumph since the 2008 US Open.

"One of the biggest wins I've ever had for sure," Woods said.

"It's something I will never, ever forget." An 11-year major drought saw him endure an infamous sex scandal as well as years of knee and back injuries that left him uncertain of a normal life until a 2017 spinal fusion operation enabled him to return to golf at an elite level.

"You could compare it to maybe the biggest, if not one of the biggest, moments in the history of golf," said 20th-ranked Webb Simpson.

"From where he was, not knowing if he would ever play again. To come from feeling that way to winning the Masters is pretty amazing."
"He's still a great player. I grew up watching him and kind of idolizing him so to get to play against him, it has been great."
