Okay, so I’ve been digging into this whole “most majors in golf” thing, and let me tell you, it’s been a rabbit hole! I started out just wanting a simple list, you know? Like, who’s got the most, who’s next, that kind of thing. Boy, was I naive.

First, I fired up my trusty search engine. Just typed in “most golf majors winners.” I figured I’d get a nice, clean table. Nope! Instead, I got a bunch of articles, each with slightly different info, different ways of presenting it, and a whole lot of history I didn’t even know I cared about.
So, I started clicking. I opened a bunch of tabs – way too many, probably. I started reading, and reading, and… well, you get the picture. I quickly realized this wasn’t just about names and numbers. It was about eras, rivalries, legendary matches… It was a lot.
My Process(More Like a Mess)
- Initial Search: Total chaos. So many different websites!
- Tab Overload: My browser was crying. Seriously.
- Note-Taking Frenzy: I grabbed a notebook and started scribbling down names, numbers, anything that looked important.
- Data Comparison: I noticed some sites focused more on certain players, others had different counts. Why the discrepancies?
- Deep Dive:I mean like deep.
I read up on Jack Nicklaus.
I found many history about Tiger Woods.
The more I dug, the more I realized how complicated even a “simple” list could be. There are different tours, different majors considered “major” at different times… it’s a whole thing.
I mean, the history is fascinating, but my original goal of a quick list? Yeah, that went out the window.
Finally,I landed the data,and I can say that Jack Nicklaus has won 18 * it’s Tiger Woods with 15,and Walter Hagen is the third with 11 majors.

So, yeah, that’s my journey into the world of golf majors. It was messier, longer, and way more interesting than I expected. I still don’t have a perfectly formatted spreadsheet, but I definitely learned a lot. And hey, maybe that’s more important anyway. I’m off to find a better way to organize all this info now. Wish me luck!
