The Majors
Golf's majors, also known as the major championships or simply 'The Majors', are the four most prestigious golf tournaments in the world.
These tournaments are considered the most important events in golf, and winning a major championship is considered one of the greatest achievements in a golfer's career.
Winning a major championship is considered the pinnacle of achievement in golf, and only a select few golfers have been able to achieve this feat.
The most successful golfers in major championship history include Jack Nicklaus, who has won 18 majors, and Tiger Woods, who has won 15 majors.
Other notable multiple major winners include Arnold Palmer, Gary Player, Phil Mickelson, and Rory McIlroy.
