The impressiveness of Tiger's streak is really highlighted by the active streaks. He's nine made cuts clear of the next closest, Adam Scott, who is 43 years old and would face a tall task to get to that 23 number. Justin Thomas may have the most realistic chance if he can continue to see weekends at Augusta at just 30 years old.
