Kaymer wins his first Major

August 18th, 2010

Martin Kaymer captured his first Major Championship at Whistling Straits this Sunday by winning the US PGA Championship after a play-off victory over Bubba Watson. After having shot a 59 on the EPD Tour in 2006 and winning twice on the European Challenge Tour in the same year, Martin obtained membership of the European Tour in 2007.

Martin won the Sir Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year award in the same year and has since amassed five victories on the European Tour. For many it was just a matter of time before Martin won his first Major.
