Tiger Woods Signed 1990 Insurance Youth Golf Classic Application - Earliest Known Signature!
Here is Tiger Woods' earliest known signature dated July 14, 1990 on his official 1990 Insurance Youth Golf Classic contestant application to enter the then 14-year-old's FIRST win in a tournament that wasn't age-restricted! Read that again, so it sinks in - absolutely incredible. So much so, that when you look closely at the unpracticed, extremely early blue ballpoint penmanship of Tiger Woods you will notice he nearly crosses his "T" with two using two separate pen strokes. This is a foreign concept when breaking down Woods' signature exemplars that usually starts as early as only 1992, if you are lucky. Player's name "Eldrick Woods" Nickname "Tiger" with a birthdate of "12-30-75." Their home address in Cypress, CA is written just below. Humorously, the verso of this sheet asked "Last spring you were in what class" with Freshman-Senior. "9th grade" was written in and circled just before those options. Woods would win his first US Junior Amateur the following year. There is early Tiger Woods material and then there is this - his EARLIEST known signature from his FIRST non age-constraint win! James Spence Authentication (JSA) has reviewed this signature and their FULL letter of authenticity #YY79571 comes with this lot.
