Which Masters win completed Tiger Woods's four-major 'Tiger Slam'?

The story behind the answer

The 2001 Masters completed Tiger Woods’s four-major “Tiger Slam.” By winning at Augusta National, Woods held all four major championships consecutively, though the victories spanned two calendar years rather than occurring in one season.

Woods had already won the 2000 U.S. Open, Open Championship and PGA Championship. He then captured the 2001 Masters by two strokes over David Duval, finishing at 16-under-par 272. The victory made him the first golfer in the modern era to hold all four major titles in succession.

The term “Tiger Slam” distinguishes Woods’s achievement from Bobby Jones’s 1930 Grand Slam. Jones won the four major championships recognized in his era within one calendar year, while Woods’s sequence ran from the 2000 U.S. Open through the 2001 Masters.

The 2005 Masters was another Woods victory, but it did not complete the Slam; by then, the four-title sequence had already been achieved. His 1997 Masters was his first, and the 2002 event came after the 2001 milestone.
