My top 5

1. Byron Nelson 11 STRAIGHT PGA TOUR WINS.....IN A ROW...

2. TW 142 cuts in a row

3. TW 683 weeks at #1 (althought SS could challenge this with LIV Splitting talent pool)

4. Jack Nicklaus top 3 in the majors 46 times winning 18

5. Freddie Jacobson......542 holes in a row without a 3 putt...(WTF....are they taking putts inside the grip length).......542 holes in a row.......

30 rounds of golf is 540 holes without a 3 putt......mind boggling.

I am not trying to discredit this in any way. That awesome and pretty incredible. But quite a few guys have gone 400+ so it's not THAT far and away above the rest in relation to what your others are. Though not a pro, putting guru Dave Stocken supposedly went 940 without a 3 putt.

I'd add Jack Nicklaus never finishing out of the top six 15 years in a row at the British Open is up there.

Tiger’s #1 streak is the greatest stat in golf and maybe all of sports. TW dominated for a solid 13 years.

Jack’s number of 2nd places in majors is impressive. Makes 18 seem low for who he was.

This is mind-numbing.

And as a pretty good amateur golfer with a single digit handicap it's fricking infuriating

If I have 1 round without a three putt I'm fricking ecstatic.

He was essentially in the hunt for almost every major he played in for a very long period of time.

Tiger slam, Tiger's cut streak, Tiger's six straight USGA championships (3 junior amateurs, 3 amateurs), Bobby Jones' Grand Slam.

In no particular order.

Kim Jong Un's 18-hole score of 18 is pretty remarkable.

I appreciate what Lord Byron did for the game, but this is one of my most overrated golf statistics. He did this during war time when both Hogan and Snead were serving in our military.

I think Jug McSpaden and Sammy Byrd were runners up for like 7 of those 11 events so it’s not like he was playing in the deepest of fields.
