Enjoyed a moment many dream of when he won the 144th Open Championship at St Andrews in 2015, beating Australian Marc Leishman and South African Louis Oosthuizen in a four-hole play-off.

That was his second Major title, following his Masters Tournament victory in 2007 when he won by two strokes from Retief Goosen, Rory Sabbatini and Tiger Woods.

Followed that with a win in the AT&T Classic, ensuring his first three PGA Tour victories occurred in Georgia. Began playing golf at age ten and lists his father, a chiropractor, and mother among his heroes.
