Career Grand Slam

Winning each of golf's four modern men's major championships—the Masters Tournament, the U.S. Open, The Open Championship, and the PGA Championship—at least once during a career.

Gene Sarazen: American golfer who won all four modern men's major championships during his career. He became the second golfer to complete the set, finishing it with the 1935 PGA Championship.
Masters Tournament: An annual golf major played at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia. It is the only major staged at the same course every year.
Tiger Slam: Tiger Woods's achievement of holding all four modern men's major titles at the same time across consecutive seasons. Unlike a career sweep, it requires simultaneous possession of the titles.
Golf Hall of Fame: A museum and recognition institution honoring significant figures in golf. Career Grand Slam winners form a small, prominent group in golf's historical memory.
Ben Hogan: American golfer who won nine major championships, including all four modern men's majors. His 1953 Open Championship completed a career sweep after he had won the other three.
U.S. Open: An annual golf major organized by the United States Golf Association. Its demanding course setups make it a distinct test within the four-title set.
Grand Slam (golf): Winning all four modern men's major championships in a single calendar year. A career sweep allows wins across many years; a calendar-year Grand Slam does not.
Men's golf world ranking: A ranking system that compares men's professional golfers using results over time. A Grand Slam does not itself determine ranking, but its constituent major wins strongly shape standing.
Gary Player: South African golfer who won nine major championships, including all four modern men's majors. His 1965 U.S. Open made him the first non-American to complete the career set.
The Open Championship: An annual golf major played on courses in the United Kingdom. It is golf's oldest major and the only one outside the United States.
