Tiger Woods has essentially refused to autograph golf balls for almost all of his career. Because of this, almost all autographed Tiger Woods golf balls that have reached the collector market were from his amateur days or very early in Tiger's career. Quite amazingly, offered in this lot is a ball that Tiger Woods signed at his professional debut at the 1996 Greater Milwaukee Open. According to the letter of provenance that accompanies this ball, Tiger autographed this GMO logo golf ball for a caddie during his Professional Debut - just after declaring "Hello World" and declaring pro.
