Tiger Woods defeated Bob May in a playoff at the 2000 PGA Championship. The tournament was held at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, from August 17 to 20, and the two players finished regulation tied at 18 under par.
The championship was decided by a three-hole aggregate playoff on Valhalla's 16th, 17th, and 18th holes. Woods birdied the first playoff hole and made pars on the next two, finishing one stroke ahead of May. Woods's playoff total was 12 strokes to May's 13.
The duel was especially memorable because May matched Woods's final-round 66 and tied him with a dramatic birdie on the 18th hole. Woods then made a birdie of his own to force extra holes. His victory was his second consecutive PGA Championship, following his 1999 win.
The result also gave Woods his fifth major championship and completed a remarkable 2000 season in which he won the U.S. Open, The Open Championship, and the PGA Championship. The other listed golfers were not his playoff opponent in that event.
