At which major did Tiger Woods shoot a 63, the lowest round of his major career?

The story behind the answer

Tiger Woods shot a 63 at the 2007 PGA Championship, the lowest round of his major career.

Woods carded the 63 during the second round on August 10, 2007, at Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The eight-under-par round tied the then-record for the lowest single-round score in major-championship history and matched Raymond Floyd’s course record from the 1982 PGA Championship.

The round was especially notable because Woods was defending his PGA Championship title. He opened with a 71, then surged up the leaderboard with the 63. His birdie putt on the 18th hole narrowly missed, so he did not set the outright major scoring record at the time.

Woods went on to win the championship by two strokes over Woody Austin, finishing at eight under par. The 2007 victory was his fourth PGA Championship and his 13th major title. The 63 is often confused with low rounds from his Masters or U.S. Open appearances, but this record-setting major round came at the PGA Championship.
