Seve Ballesteros
Think of Seve Ballesteros as the Arnold Palmer of Europe: a fiery, charismatic, good-looking, swashbuckling, risk-taking player whose star power elevated the European Tour to new levels, and helped Europe achieve equality - ultimately superiority - in the Ryder Cup.
Creativity, imagination and short-game brilliance were the hallmarks of Ballesteros' game. He might miss the fairway off the tee, but at his best, it rarely hurt him. He even made birdie after playing from a parking lot during his 1979 British Open win.

- Does anybody have the infamous clip of Seve playing a 3 wood from the bunker at the 1983 Ryder Cup? He was playing against Fuzzy Zoeller. Jank Nicklaus called it the best shot he has ever seen!
The clip cannot be found, its not even on any of Seve's videos.
Please, I have half the world looking for this shot. I have seen it and the world needs to see it again. Check your old VHS tapes!
Thank you.
Richard.

- Seve was amazing. I read the other day that when he won the Open in 1979, he was actually the first player from continental Europe to win a major in over 70 years. He really had some game.

- Good job. It's funny because Seve Ballesteros hadn't crossed my mind for a long time, then I see this lens and hear about his brain tumor on the news at the exact same time I'm reading it.
