Sergio Garcia turned professional in 1999 after an impressive career in the amateur ranks, which saw him win the Catalonian Open as a then 17-year-old. Garcia made the cut in 12 of the 18 European Tour events he entered before turning professional.
His breakthrough victory came at the Irish Open in just his sixth start as a professional, a result that saw his name go into the record books as the fourth youngest winner on The European Tour at 19 years and 176 days.
Attempting to be the youngest winner of a Major Championship for 129 years, the Spanish youngster finished second behind Tiger Woods in the 1999 US PGA Championship at Medinah.
The 24-year-old Garcia is already a five-time winner on both the European Tour and the US PGA Tour. He also has recorded three victories on the Asian Tour.

Adam Scott is regarded as the most exciting young Australian golfer since Greg Norman. At the age of 23 years, eight months and 12 days, he became the youngest winner of The Players Championship on the US PGA Tour, an event considered by many to be the game's fifth Major.
Scott is a four-time winner on the US PGA Tour. His initial breakthrough came at the 2003 Deutsche Bank Championship after a second round 62 set up a four stroke win and saw Adam break into the top 20 in the World Rankings for the first time.
