Tiger Woods has claimed victory in 10 of professional golf’s coveted major championships: The Masters, U.S. Open, British Open, and PGA Championship. He has won 55 PGA Tour events and banked over $66 million in prize money. He earns an estimated $80 million per year in endorsements and appearance fees.

He has a big house, fancy cars, a mega-yacht, a private plane, and a well-endowed charitable foundation. He’s handsome, has a beautiful wife and a child on the way. What more could Tiger Woods possibly want? A party!

In addition to being the earth’s greatest golfer, Tiger Woods is the host of one of the biggest blowout bashes in Las Vegas. Now in its 10th year, the annual TigerJam is a see-and-be-seen scene unlike any other, with musical legends and celebs flocking to Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino for a concert and auction that has raised over $10 million for charity to date.

Despite a hectic schedule that includes playing (and usually winning) golf tournaments around the world, filming commercials, starring in a best-selling video game, opening a golf course design business, and preparing for fatherhood, Tiger took time out to talk about his favorite visit to Vegas each year.

Q. TigerJam has become one of the hottest tickets in Las Vegas. What is the secret to its success?

A. I think it’s a combination of everything that makes TigerJam great. We have an awesome venue at Mandalay Bay, phenomenal music, great guests, and amazing sponsors and fans.
