"Seve" Ballesteros as one of the sport's leading figures from the mid-1970s to the mid-1990s. A member of a gifted golfing family, he won more than 90 international tournaments in an illustrious career, including five major championships between 1979 and 1988: The Open Championship three times, and the Masters Tournament twice. He gained attention in the golfing world in 1976, when at the age of 19 he finished second at The Open. He played a leading role in the re-emergence of European golf, helping the European Ryder Cup team to five wins both as a player and captain. He won the World Match Play Championship a record-tying five times. Widely known for his dashing and imaginative style of play, with a sublime short game and erratic driving of the golf ball, he is generally regarded as the greatest Continental European golfer of all time. He won a record 50 times on the European Tour. Ballesteros died of brain cancer on 7 May 2011, aged 54. This item comes with a certificate of authenticity from James Spence Authentication.
