Ok, yes. Not to demean Mr. Jones accomplishment, but that included 2 amateur Open events. No one has accomplished the Grand Slam since the advent of the Masters.
Exactly. Which means that Jones won the 2 biggest professional events of his time when he was only a part-time player.
Of course, he also built the golf course and created the tournament that is the Masters.
That said, Tiger's career 29% winning percentage (Hogan's 26% is the only one in history who even comes close) shows exactly how dominant he has been since he turned professional. In a sport where winning 2 or 3 times in a career is a good career, he wins nearly 1 out of 3 tournaments that he plays in.
