Tiger's First PGA Tournament Round 1992 Nissan LA Open Debut Parking Pass - PSA Authentic
For the first round of Tiger Woods' first PGA event, this parking pass was used after beating the LA traffic - the first step logistically for a glimpse at the local teenage sensation at Riviera Country Club. Fresh off of our last offering that saw a full ticket from this event eclipse $8.5k, this electric green parking pass (don't want a parking ticket) carries the PSA #65465846 authentic grade. With high eye appeal, only a single line of scrapbook remnants on verso, it is a pop 1 in this grade, with none higher.
Taking a couple days off of school and heading to the golf course to play in a professional tournament as a 16 year-old Sophomore in high school sounds like a dream many have had. For Tiger Woods in 1992 it was reality. Playing his first tournament on a sponsor's exemption at Riviera only a half of an hour away, Woods became the youngest male competitor in an official tour event that week. Sports Illustrated writer John Garrity even titled his four-page story about the monster event in the March 9, 1992 issue "You the Kid!': Tiger Woods, 16, proved he could make the grade, if not the cut, in his PGA Tour debut!"
While it was not a win, this tournament was truly Tiger Woods' coming out party on the professional level. More than likely some of his competitors that week knew that they had to get their wins then before Woods was on the tour to stay four and a half years later. Here it is. Investors, collectors and sports memorabilia analysts.
