The first time someone completed what we call golf’s modern career Grand Slam was 1935, although nobody knew it then. That’s when Gene Sarazen won the Augusta National Invitation Tournament … which eventually became known as the Masters … which eventually gained status as one of the four men’s professional majors.

Five players have won golf's four major titles in their careers and Rory McIlroy is looking to join that club at the 2025 Masters.
