Back in 2018, Tiger Woods was asked to name his Mt. Rushmore of golf. For some reason, that video has resurfaced on social media nearly six years later.

Ahead of the 2018 Ryder Cup, Woods revealed that Sam Snead, Bobby Jones and Jack Nicklaus would be on his Mt. Rushmore. The final spot is reserved for himself. 

"My all-time Mt. Rushmore of golf," Woods said. "Snead, Jones, Nicklaus… me." 

Nicklaus and Woods are widely regarded as the two greatest golfers of all-time. They deserve a spot on Mt. Rushmore. 

Snead and Jones, on the other hand, might not be as popular but their spots on this list are well-earned. The former had 82 wins on the PGA Tour, while the latter captured 13 major champions. 

Judging by the reactions on social media, fans approve of Woods' opinion. 

"Being able to say 'Me' on a Mt. Rushmore question and not get challenged on it is an all time flex," one fan said.

Another person wrote, "If Tiger says that's who it is, that's who it is."

"Tiger is the only person on the planet who could get away with this," a social media user commented.

We highly doubt Woods would make any major changes to his Mt. Rushmore if asked the same question today.  

After all, no one has really pushed the all-time greats yet.
