Woods and caddie set 'target of winning 21 majors' (BBC News)

Tiger Woods' long-time caddie Steve Williams says his former boss was "obsessed with breaking Jack Nicklaus' record" of 18 major titles.

"Tiger was obsessed with breaking Jack's record," he said. It's great when the wind blows because it makes it a real challenge." His whole goal was to eclipse Jack's record, that's what he wanted to do and his desire and work ethic to try and achieve that goal was second to none." However, the pressure was never greater than when Woods was chasing the 'Tiger Slam' at the Masters in 2001. "Some guys are happy to be top five, top 10. And he said that's because I'm retiring too."
