As the sun set over Augusta National and the grandstands emptied, 2016 champion Danny Willett placed the infamous green jacket over the shoulders of Sergio Garcia.
Eighteen years after joining the PGA Tour, 37-year-old Garcia has finally won his first major championship. Since emerging on the scene in the 1999 PGA Championship with his legendary “behind the tree shot”, Garcia has been a constant contender on the tour.
After finishing in the top ten of twenty-two majors during his career, Garcia’s triumph in Augusta this weekend has been something golf fans everywhere have been waiting to see.
