Tiger Woods reached a few key milestones in winning the British Open Sunday.
Became the third player in history to reach the double-digit mark in professional major championships: Jack Nicklaus had 18 titles and Walter Hagen won 11.
Joined Nicklaus as only the second player to win all four majors twice: Woods has four Masters, two U.S. Opens, two British Opens, and two PGA Championships.
Became the 28th player to win two majors in a season. Woods has done it three times.
Became only the fifth player to win the Open twice at St. Andrews: Bob Martin (1876, 1885), James Braid (1905, 1910), J.H. Taylor (1895, 1900), Nicklaus (1970, 1978), and Woods (2000, 2005).
