This week, Golf Channel’s Johnson Wagner is bringing the legendary shots of Tiger Woods from his record-breaking 2000 season back to life, live on Golf Central Postgame. The three-time PGA Tour winner and current analyst is recreating several of Tiger Woods’ most memorable shots, showcasing the magic of Woods’ 2000 season, widely considered one of the greatest in golf history.
Starting Thursday, Wagner embarks on a unique challenge: traveling to four iconic golf courses to attempt to pull off some of the most famous shots from Woods’ career. These shots include legendary moments from 2000 when Woods dominated the sport like no one else. Which specific shots Wagner will recreate? Golf fans will have to tune in to find out.First recreated shots at Pebble BeachWagner’s first attempts aired live on Thursday and focused on two shots from Pebble Beach, a course famously tied to Woods’ victories in 2000. The first shot recreated was from the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in February. In that event, Woods staged a thrilling comeback, overcoming a seven-stroke deficit in the final round to defeat Matt Gogel. One of the standout moments from that performance was Tiger’s incredible hole-out from 97 yards on the par-4 15th hole, a shot that kept alive his historic six-event winning streak that began in late 1999.Next, Wagner recreated one of the most iconic shots from Woods’ victory in the 2000 US Open at Pebble Beach. Woods, who went on to win by a record-breaking 15 strokes, hit a jaw-dropping 7-iron from 205 yards in the second round, out of four-inch rough on the par-5 sixth hole. The shot was so impressive that it prompted on-course reporter Roger Maltbie to declare, “It’s just not a fair fight.” This shot is considered one of the defining moments of Woods’ unparalleled dominance that year.The ‘Golf Central Postgame’ scheduleViewers can watch Wagner recreate more of Woods’ iconic shots live throughout the weekend.
