He turned pro nearly six years before Spieth and has kept a global schedule with membership on two tours. The average total prize money for Woods during that stretch was $173.8 million. While both reached $50 million in roughly nine years, Woods did it in 41 fewer tournaments (177 compared with 218 for Spieth). Spieth turned pro in 2013 - like Woods, without a Tour card - and the total prize fund was $260 million. Total prize money when Woods turned pro in the summer of 1996 was $65.95 million. Yes, there was a significant difference in purses. He would be quick to acknowledge that a number like $50 million wouldn’t even exist without Woods. Spieth was among a half-dozen players who inconspicuously leaned over the railing from the second floor of PGA Tour headquarters last month to watch as Woods was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame. Woods needed only seven more years to cross $100 million, and now he is at $120,895,206. He was 29 and 6 months when he was runner-up at the Western Open in 2005, pushing him over a milestone that he quickly left in the rearview mirror. Woods is the only other player to reach $50 million in career Tour earnings before turning 30.
