Upper Deck is celebrating a quarter-century since its first major golf card release with the 2026 Upper Deck Golf set, set to launch on February 18. A standout feature of this edition is the autographed buybacks of Tiger Woods’ legendary 2001 Upper Deck rookie card. Woods has autographed 25 of these buybacks, each adorned with gold ink, hand-numbered, and marked with a 25th anniversary buyback stamp. The set also revisits the full 2001 Upper Deck base set and the entire Tiger’s Tales insert series, with each card numbered to 25 and stamped for the anniversary.
