The PGA Tour and PIF have been locked in talks since June 2023. Actually, it started even before that. The top brass of both sides were negotiating for a few months before the June 6 announcement.

His four-round total of 18 under par resulted in a 12-stroke margin of victory over Tom Kite — a record that still stands to this day. Tiger Woods won the 1997 Masters by a record-setting 12 shots. Given its historical significance, any memorabilia from that Masters is worth a small fortune. In recent years, the “Tiger Slam” irons fetched $5.1 million, and Woods’ Scotty Cameron Newport 2 GSS sold for almost $400,000. But what happened to the ball Woods used for his final strokes before signing for a Sunday 69…
