Professional golfer and former world No. 1, Luke Donald, was born on December 7, 1977. After winning three amateur events, he turned professional in 2001 and won his first PGA Tour event at the 2002 Southern Farm Bureau Classic and his first European Tour event at the 2004 Scandinavian Masters. He has a total of 17 professional wins, including the 2011 WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship, and two consecutive BMW PGA Championships in 2011 and 2012.

In total, Donald spent 56 weeks at the top of the world rankings after rising to the top in 2011. He also spent more than 200 weeks in the top 10. He made history by becoming the first player to win both money lists on the PGA and European Tours in a single year in 2011.

However, Donald's career has been declining since late 2013, when he missed the cut at the Open Championship. His career decline was rather slow, as he lost his form and had a few more medical issues. After more than a decade, he finished tied for 68th at the 2024 PGA Championship and is ranked world No. 396 as of June 2024.
