In that edition, he also set the record for the largest margin of victory (12 strokes) that still stands today.In 1997, Woods also set the lowest score record for 72 holes in the Masters tournament (18 under 270), which was equaled by Jordan Spieth in 2015 and eventually surpassed by Dustin Johnson in 2020 (20 under 268).To add to his impressive accomplishments, Woods also achieved the impressive feat of winning the event in 1997 after a first round of 4 over par. He played the next three rounds for a score of 22 under par to eventually win the title.Between his fourth and fifth victories in the event, 14 seasons passed (2005 – 2019), the longest period between victories by the same player.
