Thomas Bjorn

Perhaps the greatest Danish Golfer of all time, Bjorn's illustrious, 15-year professional career includes nine PGA European Tour and two international titles. In 2007, the 36-year-old added four top-10s, including a third-place finish at the Open de France. A fierce competitor, Bjorn was a key member of two European Ryder Cup teams and has finished runner-up in three major championships. His third-round 63 at the 2005 PGA Championship tied the record-low round ever shot in a major.
