The United States Golf Association (USGA) has selected Tiger Woods to receive the prestigious Bob Jones Award, the USGA’s highest honor, for his exceptional commitment to sportsmanship and respect for golf’s time-honored traditions. As a nine-time USGA champion and winner of the 1994 SCGA Amateur Championship, Woods has notably influenced the modern game.
Woods will accept the award on June 11, during the week of the 124th U.S. Open Championship at Pinehurst, N.C., further cementing his legacy of the game. – Jack Margaros
