Sincerely, Arnold Palmer: Golf stars still treasure letters from World Golf Hall of Famer

ORLANDO – Bernhard Langer has won more than 100 tournaments worldwide the past 50 years or so, with 42 coming on the DP World Tour and 43 on the PGA Tour Champions – both totals bested only by Seve Ballesteros on the DP World Tour, by Hale Irwin on the PGA Tour Champions.

Langer, the former world No. 1, whose plaque was hung in the World Golf Hall of Fame 20 years ago, has won two Masters, 11 majors on the senior circuit and been victorious an astounding 10 times since turning 60 four years ago.

Each victory is memorable, but a few have come with some extra buzz. In addition to taking home the championship hardware and the winner’s paycheck, a personal letter congratulating Langer arrived shortly after many of his victory celebrations.
