Which tournament completed Tiger Woods' four-major Tiger Slam?

The story behind the answer

The 2001 Masters completed Tiger Woods’s four-major Tiger Slam.

Woods entered Augusta National having won the 2000 U.S. Open, the 2000 Open Championship and the 2000 PGA Championship. By winning the 2001 Masters, he became the first golfer in the modern era to hold all four major titles consecutively, although the victories crossed two calendar years.

Woods finished the tournament at 16-under-par 272, two strokes ahead of David Duval. He shot four rounds in the 60s after opening with a 70: his final scorecard was 70, 66, 68 and 68. The victory was his second Masters title and sixth major championship.

The phrase “Tiger Slam” distinguishes this achievement from a calendar-year Grand Slam. Bobby Jones won four major-equivalent events in one year in 1930, but the modern major structure was different. The 2001 Masters, rather than the 2000 U.S. Open or PGA Championship, was the completing event.
