Description
Bernhard Langer is considered by many to be one of the best-known - certainly the most consistent and resilient - golf professionals playing in the modern game. He has hovered in the upper echelons of the game for over 20 years, and since 1980, he has only once been outside the top 30 in the Volvo Order of Merit. His story is one of conquering adversity. Despite growing up in a country where golf is a minority sport, he rose to become World Number One. Within that rise he had also famously struggled to overcome "yips" - putting problems that dogged his career. A devout Christian he formed and helps run The European Tour Bible Class.

Person
German BERNHARD LANGER has been one of the world's leading golf professionals for more than 20 years. In that time he has been ranked European and World Number One and has won countless tournaments including the Masters in 1985 and 1993. He is easily the most experienced player in Europe's 2002 Ryder Cup team; his selection is a mark of his remarkable recent return to form, having been left out of the previous team in 1999.
