The previous record holder was Byron Nelson and in third was Jack. I'm not sure how many of the events they played in did not have a cut.
I agree, it's tough to figure out exactly how good the streak was when each year he was in the Tour Championship, Mercedes Championship and World Match Play - all events without cuts. Nevertheless, it's still an amazing accomplishment.
