1. 6 USGA titles in a row
2. 4 majors in a row
3. 142 consecutive cuts made
4. 27% winning percentage
5. 76 wins at the age of 37
6. Winning the US Open by 15
7. Winning 5 times or more in a row on 3 separate occasions
8. Winning career grand slam at the age of 24
9. 51-4 record with lead after 54 holes

Also, if he gets to 100 wins and 20 majors will it go down as the greatest accomplishment in sports history?

Very impressive.

How does this compare to Jack or other all time greats?

I would say the Tiger Slam. That's so insanely hard to do. He did it. But I would say his record win at Augusta when he beat everyone so bad, they started Tiger Proofing the course.

Winning the US Open by 15 strokes was one of the most impressive things i've ever seen in sports.

It was like Tiger was in an entirely different tournament, playing on a different course.

27% winning percentage and the consecutive cuts record will never be broken. Career grand slam at age 24 is easily the most breakable record. Heck, if Rory can win the British Open this year and the Masters in the next two years, he'll match Tiger's feat. That's definitely not an unreachable mark.

I agree that these are crazy. I will say that the winning percentage is likely to go down a good bit as Tiger hangs on to chase the Majors record. I wonder what Tiger's career winning percentage was in 2008?

Jack was just under 15%

Also came across this as well...Ben Hogan had 63 wins out of 292 career tournaments on the PGA TOUR. (21.6%). He was in the top 3 139 times (47.6%) and in the Top 10 241 times (82.5%).

ETA: Another pretty awesome list of accomplishments for Jack. Not sure how accurate this is but impressive if true.

In the 1970s:
He only missed one cut.
He finished outside the top ten only five times.
He won eight of his 18 majors.
He finished fifth or better in every British Open.
He only finished outside fourth in the Masters once.
