Description
2002 SP Game Used Course Of A Champion Tiger Woods Autograph Complete Blue Set (18) - Graded BGS Mint 9. Golf's transformation into a mainstream sport can largely be attributed to Tiger Woods, whose emergence split the sport's history into pre- and post-Woods eras. Before Woods, golf enjoyed a modest following but lacked widespread appeal among broader sports audiences. Woods not only elevated the game's profile but also revolutionized sports marketing to a level comparable to Michael Jordan's impact on basketball.Recognizing the immense marketability of Woods, Upper Deck astutely secured an exclusive autograph and memorabilia deal with him, positioning itself as the sole authorized provider of his signature. This strategic move not only capitalized on Woods' ascending fame but also solidified Upper Deck's position in the sports memorabilia market.
Offered here is an extraordinary collection from the 2002 SP Game Used "Course of a Champion" Blue set, featuring Tiger Woods. This complete 18-card blue set is uniquely serialized to match the hole numbers it represents, adding a distinct and rare element to each card. Each card in this collection has been graded by Beckett Grading Services, with all but 1 card boasting autograph grades of either "8", "9" or "10". This set not only highlights Woods' legendary status but also serves as a cornerstone piece for any serious collector of golf memorabilia. Includes: BGS Mint 9: 1 card, #3; BGS Mint 9, Auto 10: 2 cards, #'s 13 and 16; BGS Mint 9, Auto 9: 13 cards, #'s 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, and 18; BGS Mint 9, Auto 8: 2 cards, #'s 14, and 17.
