This past weekend a virtual unknown golfer won the Masters Tournament – the most surprising champion in its history…
He shot 276 over 4 days in regulation – for an average score of 69
The modern Masters Tournament started in 1940 – 69 years ago
The winner was born on Sep. 12, 1969
He was the lowest ranked golfer ever to win the Masters – his world rank: 69
He was from Argentina – the first Argentine ever to win the Masters
He was from Cordoba
Dad was from Cordoba, Argentina. He would have been 69 years old.
Oh – the golfers name? Angel
We miss you dad!
