Every shot of Tiger Woods’ win after a sudden-death play-off at Valderrama to edge out Spanish favourite Miguel Angel Jiménez in a thrilling climax to the first World Golf Championships event to be held in Europe.
The then world No.1 equalled several long-time records as he claimed the American Express Championship after a day of unrelenting drama at Valderrama, when Colin Montgomerie stretched his own remarkable record of Volvo Order of Merit victories to seven in a row.

From USA Tiger [Applause] Woods first hole pretty much straight into the wi maybe a little bit from the left and it’s a driver today for Tiger it’s a statement of intent we waited yesterday for him to make his mov he left it all not wearing the Sunday red book it’s the
Same shirt that he wore last Sunday that’s three birdies in a row 178 yesterday this hope Tom L but T is into a share of the lead and he will take a lot of Shifting just see on the right of shot there the tree that’s in the middle of the Fairway
Tiger starting it down the left now he’s got a difficult one I mean that was just the other day just bounding past it wasn’t a factor for these players it is now real greens are quite different to the practice patting green here obviously tiger knew what he was
Doing in the angle the camera a bit deceptive a splendid set up right side of the hole as well [Applause] very see how he punched that one in as well got it wrong is going to roll quite a long way from right to left as it lands we talked about the scramble
Factor again perfect demonstration from Tiger little check Not Great by his standards but pretty good by everybody else’s and there is no stronger leader in the world he he ain’t going to come back to him they’ve got to catch him this is the dog leg left fifth with a helping wind today so it’s
A question of positioning it off the tea with an iron it’s okay but now B what he normally tries to do there’s a bunker on the left the second one and the or the lower one he tries to just carry the corner of that that’s not too bad for where the pin is
Today tiger from just about the perfect position only just in the the light first cut of rough and getting a lot of action on the ball much more than he would have [Applause] wanted tiger birdie P he’s never very far away already the leading Money winner in
The United States gets the Arnold Palmer award for that and tiger remains at four under they head off to the car 36 been a problem hold for Woods in the first oh three days he made Bogi in two of the three days and that’s so unlucky so fast coming back I mean
Nearly in the hole if it hadn’t bounced into the rough there that would have spun back probably into the hole and maybe well beyond it he needs brakes on it hit the pin or he holds [Applause] it pin was just leaning the wrong side [Applause] really it certainly looks like it though
Doesn’t it well that’s hard to imagine probably needed a parachute on there but least he can get the mud off now Lo in in [Applause] there that was so well played to have the the touch and the field to be able to land that just in the rough no room for nerves
There but it’s this sort of length of PTY soak out and so is Garcia and I think that’s almost a gift of [Applause] You Time After Time After Time okay another scramble 169 yards to go downwind a little helping off the right for [Applause] Tiger that’s a slight miscalculation huge drive and he might have been with a three-wood ni price after playing with him yesterday said that he had never seen anyone generate the club head speed that Tiger Woods [Applause]
Does gave it a good run but uh that’s outside gimme range for most people little more firm Tru by Tiget you get a good idea of it it’s a slight dog leg left the aim is really just an iron down to the pretty much the middle of the Fairway pin today is just 5 yards in from the right hand side so the further you can get down the left hand side without
Blocking yourself out the better and then that huge bunker u-shaped bunker it’s a rare mistake from T another good short par for is 345 yards it’s a tight t- shot just a a wedge in normally to a green that’s guarded by a U-shaped bunker all the way around the front
Raised green he having to try and work it around the corner and that’s in that bunker may have been where he was aiming can’t believe he’s hit it they must have struck his tree and either drop down or come back and the bunker was the only option really
Didn’t really say it when he came here but he owed vder armor one was a disappointment to [Applause] me wi behind just an iron off the te for Tiger Woods on a hole that was it 441 yards it’s difficult to know really isn’t it from his expression after
Hitting it just where it’s going he might have thought that that wasn’t awfully good hard know is what he considers to be acceptable we see that is just so consistent on a day like this he’s probably going to finish as he started with the birdie out in 33 this to close
The front line likewise he is hitting an awful lot of greens for the most part of course and particular around 30 three CS has hit most of the greens he starts out way to the left and I’m not sure that’s coming back oh yeah little faith Three Wood got it back stopped it
Quickly top of the hill ideal view down the green either way it’s Shield of the bunkers which is what you have to be can release down the but you know better off you got a sloping hanging line with tiger strength just a short iron across the valley it rises very steeply to this
Green and the pin today cut over on the left hand side [Applause] l not quite so easy to see the line with it the light and shade Shadow and sunshine ton of break here from the right here we go well he’s quite good isn’t he people w’t go here this week people
Said who’s going to win I why it’s very boring but Tiger Woods and they said yeah but he doesn’t really like this course and I the way he’s playing at the 9th and 10th he’s now standing on another bird B hole 547 yards downwind still enough for him to have
The driver Rod started on the left edge of the Fairway because it all runs down steeply to the right oh there’s an error well actually that may not be too bad he’s far enough back he get the light looks good he may still be able to get on into from there
The 11th hole a big fallway to the right hand side the bunkers down the right Tiger Woods I think finding the second one still had 180 to the front of the green well if Layman can do it from where he was Tiger can certainly do it from where he
Is I think he’s far enough back from that lip I think it’s foreshortened by the camera angle he can get even the long on up very good contact it was the contact he wanted it has he got the direction oh he has Sensational that’s so unlucky just running out of
Green again you might see the difference remember Garcia was similar position through to and left his chip very short he’s quite steep up to the flag it be interesting to see how much closer Woods gets interesting contrast of requirements here in a way you want to
Be opening up the club face a little bit to get the ball up fairly quickly and he wants to get it up on the Wind anyway and so has that gone in he moves the flag I think it has an eagle for Tiger is second of the week there we
Go unbelievable golf swapping Roars along the length of a far five I mean this is a a world class Golf Course that it’s not easy in calm conditions it has a wind which is making it very very hard and tiger wood has just put together a run which sees him
Going birdie birdie eagle and he’s four under sh lovely we saw Garcia go for it and go left of the bunker we sawaral take the shot on and go into the bunker this is becoming an exhibition now this is crazy see not a huge back swing he’s shortened the back swing shoulders only
Just really turning Square he’s 800 he’s missed a couple for this length this is just simply Sensational on a golf course that’s playing just about as hard as it can he leads by three and he’s six under for his final round second shot down the hill to a very small green you’ll see
There are no bunk at all but finding the green requires two good shots pin today set just 5 yds in from the right hand side 19 on was that the driver Again it’s shaping up he got about 60 yards to the front of the green and he’s shaping like he’s going to go over everything certainly is Club wide open looking up over the top it’s coming down with snow on it cabbage is over the Briney nothing on the clock but the Maker’s name
Play it well but it’s not [Applause] dead probably during the course of the week the way he’s played the first eight and the way he’s finished he always finished strongly that was so timely yesterday when he got birdes at 17 and at 18 what is it about Champions it’s a
Fascinating subject isn’t it for three days he’s been trying his little socks off he’s been playing very good golf but just not able to make the really good scores good enough to be right there in the hunt and good enough and then second shot to an elevated green he learned so fast as
Well I mean he he’s got the course management right there second shot to the 14th from quite well back the tiger just gone down the shaft a fraction must be between clubs oh goodness me he nearly sunk it it is just unbelievable back to go to 10 under
Seven under for the day remember the best round of the week is 66 need to go s under for the day this is the hle where Ole pulled his second shot in the right of C Tiger Woods very nearly did the same thing another single P 17 PS and 14
Holes four holes to go 10 under what the next Target little pop at the course [Applause] record Punchy cuty shot he’s overdone it yeah well he gives the opportunity for a single P again he’s not gone too far down there provided it hasn’t really settled down
In that Bermuda R he’s not too badly placed there shot such as this I think it it’s sitting down a little bit because he’s looking to play more of a flop shot he’s giving it quite a full swing kick right great shot let me just Mark another simple put
Down will be 18 and 15 hes a reasonable idea of what the 16th looks like for Tiger Woods the trees on the right probably the biggest Hazard off the te there’s a bit more room to the left but if you’re in the trees on the right you’ll have no shot to the [Applause]
Green into wind got the big stick out again com well he took on the trees on the right he’s flown them and now he’s in great [Applause] shape more immediately this just this man there’s that tree in front of him once in the B Masters uh Chris Conor played the sh of
The toour carved a a three iron round the trees and onto the green this has to have a little bit of left to right on it fairly straight face Club oh that’s what he’s become so good at doing got a little bit too much elow GRE
On it this time but it’s his ability to work the ball almost any which way you like that has made him so good on any golf course in the world particularly playing Links Golf no he’s a little disappointed actually it’s gone quite a way past that’s really
And well who knows I mean if you’re picking a man to play the 70 Miguel him would be pretty high on my list [Applause] true this is a bit from right to left it’s certainly not a gimme a Ah the first drop shot of the day the Tiger 20 bucks and 16 holes laying up he’s got a good 245 to the [Applause] front so he’s just trying to put it in the ideal position for him his favorite length shot very small Target over there on the right though isn’t [Applause] it so This Is The Moment of Truth really
If he can play this shot half decently it might just be the shot that wins the championship too much Spin and he can be back in the water looked as they tried to play that fairly softly not hitting it hard that’s perfect perfect world class plus but just
Stop so he did it didn’t have the heavy spin on it he landed it just in the right place oh no he thought he was smiling he didn’t know what was going to happen I can’t believe that that wasn’t spin it was just the roll off the slope
He looked as he’d landed that in exactly the right [Applause] place I’m not sure that’s fair but it’s happened it’s real now this is the reaction when he saw he’d been all smiles he was looking at a birdie now he’s got the water to travel across again and he’ll be playing Five
Wow question is how far back do you go that is an absolutely vicious pin position finished birdie birdie yesterday it’s not going to be birdy birdie today it’s been a magnificent day what a memorable day golf I’m what a climax over [Applause] yet presumably he’s going to land it
Beyond taking no chances too much this time but even then you see I mean he’s got a horrendous shot from there if he could have got out out of town with the six he’d still have been favorite with kth with these two tough hle 16 and particularly 17 to
Come now then what can he do here remember how he puted into the water in the rder cup [Applause] Accelerating or Steve Williams the C wanted just to throw the flag away and he maybe with uh him in trouble with 17 to come he may get away with this but we’ve had 10 we’ve had [Applause] nines eight good Miss move weave an eight four shots in two holes
You I almost wonder if that stuns back to the 13th when he took his drive there now okay he made his four but was that just a little overconfidence I have to ask him but possibly but he’s too behind M angle HTH now for the moment sweating now he play this whole beautifully
Yesterday and they like that drive I it was a three wood again that’s one of his strengths oh that’s worked beautifully for him great shot you come off that 17th feeling like hanging yourself and oh that’s that’s huge can he make a three Again strong mind check didn’t really took a big first BCE didn’t it yeah firm green we haven’t really seen anyone getting close there still got a p for a 67 but reeling you can you can see it in the body language the face the anxiety now when you talk about the smile wiped
Off your face it was while the ball was in track it Steve Williams and Tom L Tom Layman just got a few words of composure really for the time he’s not allowed to give [Applause] Advice certainly doesn’t want to do as three ped yeah that’s a problem that would almost hand the title to the Spaniard it’s missed it on the low side solid like 68 I mean if you if you just saw it in the newspaper tomorrow 68 but that’s
Good no one else has done better than that it wouldn’t tell you the story The 68 that was looking like a possible 64 40 minutes ago the short of that were second place but Tiger Wood is not interested in second second sucks he says only a win
Will do of course when he won the trophy long comp Miguel angle himne did it via a whole chip at the 18th at sanom it’s going to be a chip from HTH hold your breath got a chance it’s got a CH oh what he got a little lucky perhaps
With the Horseshoe at the previous hole that was always too hard I think it’s well as well it got a chunk of the hole there because that was running on Sterling effort that’s quite Speedy at least it didn’t hesho it out sometimes when you get an bit of the
Hole it sends it on another 3 or 4 ft Miguel has checked his car we go back down to the 18t and for this American Express Championship it’s a playoff between the home favorite and the world number one so much at stake surely they’ come back tomorrow with Miguel living just up
The road and tiger committed to a clinic tomorrow morning awesome great shot tiger that’s the Rea awesome say Steve Williams and it is again The Gauntlet thrown down that is a massive hit let’s have a look at this uh 18th 454 yards big dog leg left and
Tiger Woods with a three-wood has flown it over those trees on the left around the corner still haven’t reached his ball yet and it’s down around about here somewhere maybe no more than a sand iron or a wedget that most Left has coming out the first cut of semi- rough but at the moment favorite win he has played Sensational golf today he got very hard harshly treated on 17 just 110 yards to the [Applause] pin might be good enough on his [Applause] [Applause] own Tiger Woods has done it in style the style that we’ve come to associate with this young genius he’s not yet 24 he’s won $6.5 million he’s won the US money this by a country m now he’s won the Anderson Consulting medal he’s won the vard and
Trophy he’s won just about everything going spare thought for Miguel angle HTH who’s won many hearts today but despite the trip up and then some at 17 Tiger Wood has come through and the two of them tying at 6 underpar five clear for the rest of the field was almost predictable really wasn’t
Going to let it slip was he

Thank you so much for uploading this. Are you able to find and upload Tigers first international win in Thailand at the Johnnie Walker? That’s got to be one of the hardest courses in the world (Blue Canyon GC)
Tiger in his prime
you guys already posted this
What was his swing speed during his prime? I'm guessing around 130mph
I love how “European Tour” is blurred out and “DP World Tour” is inserted.
He did not win at Carnoustie in '99
Be nice if y'all told us what year this took place, either on-screen or in the video description. My mom told me to stop whining and Google it.
Wow he looks really good can’t even tell he was ever in a wreck if he wins again this week it’ll be back to back both leagues baby
