A MASTER FUL CAREER

In late 2021, Bernhard Langer recorded a sixth Charles Schwab Cup title on the Champions Tour. No other player has won the honour more than once. At 64 he’s the oldest to ever win on the tour, and he continues to chase Hale Irwin’s 45–win total with his tally now sitting at 42.

Given what the German has achieved through his long and illustrious career, him breaking more records at the age of 64 should come as no surprise. Every year he seems to feature on the leaderboard at The Masters, despite the course not really suiting his game at this point of his career. That said, he has more experience than virtually anyone else at Augusta and a lust for competition few can match. His two Major titles both came in Georgia, in 1985 and 1993, and this year’s Masters marks the 40th anniversary of his debut.
