In addition to winning two Masters’ Green Jackets (1985 and 1993), he won titles on six continents and from every major golf association. In 2020, at the age of 63, he made the cut at the Masters on a very long Augusta National golf course. He won 42 DP World Tour (European Tour) events, which is second only to Seve Ballesteros’ 50 wins. Langer has competed in 106 major championships. In addition to the two Masters’ wins, he has finished runner up twice at The OPEN Championship and has a total of 19 top ten finishes in major championship competition. The most recent came in 2014, when he tied for eighth at the Masters. Since turning 50 and joining the PGA Tour Champions, Langer has won 42 titles on that tour, second only to Hale Irwin. The smart money is that Bernhard will surpass Irwin before his playing days are over. And don’t forget, Langer has won 11 Senior Major titles. He has achieved the Senior Career Grand Slam by winning all five Senior Major titles at least once. The PGA Tour Champions does not receive the headlines and bright lights the young guys get on the regular tour, but the longevity of Bernhard Langer’s career is one of the most remarkable feats ever witnessed in golf. Stand by for more though, he isn’t done yet. Ohio Golf Journal
