Davis Love-III


Residence: St Simon’s Island, Georgia
DOB: 13/04/1964
Golf has always been key to Davis Love III’s life having been introduced to the game by his father, Davis Love, Jr. who was a nationally recognised golf coach. Davis honed his skills at the University of North Carolina and has gone on to become one of the all-time money winners on the PGA Tour – as of 2006 he was 4th with career prize money alone of $34m. Davis Love III has 19 PGA tour victories to his name, including wins in golf’s ‘5th’ Major - The Players Championship (TPC) which he won in 1992 and 2003, and the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am – and has spent many years in the top 10 of the Official World Golf Rankings. The highlight of his career though must surely be his one and only Major – the 1997 PGA Championship played at Winged Foot in New York. His most recent win was in 2006 at the Chrysler Classic of Greensboro. A very popular man on tour with many close friends such as Fred Couples and Jeff Sluman, Davis’ hobbies are hunting, fishing - and riding Harley Davison motorbikes. Our bio photo of Davis was taken at the Honda Classic played at the PGA National Champion Course.

 2007  TPC - Sawgrass

The 34th staging of the TPC took place at The Stadium Course, Ponte Vedra Beach in Florida between May 10th-13th 2007. The Players Championship (TPC) has for a long time been considered golf’s ‘5th’ Major because of the traditionally very strong field – typically the top 50 players in the world congregate to battle it out for the huge prize money. The victor this time was Phil Mickelson who, helped by Tiger’s old coach, Butch Harmon, bagged the $1.62m first prize and the 31st PGA Tour victory of his career after finishing with a 3-under 69 and a two-stroke victory over Sergio Garcia. Stewart Cink and Jose Maria Olazabal a further stroke back tied 3rd. The Stadium course is famous for it’s tiny island green on the par 3 17th – which this time proved a watery grave for a record 94 golf balls (it’s not just us handicappers who end up in the drink). This was Mickelson’s first victory at the TPC after 14 attempts.
