28 year old Danny Willett is scripting his own tale and enjoying a remarkable 2016. His moment in the sun came at the 2016 Masters Tournament earlier this year where he became just the second man from his country to win the event.

He is ranked at a career-high 9th place, a position he has held doggedly since his win at the Masters earlier this year. He’s come off the pace recently with disappointing performances at The Open Championship and the PGA Championship, but he is one who has an eye for the spectacular.

He’s recorded 5 wins on the European Tour in his career and one each on the Asian and PGA Tours.
