Ben Crenshaw

Graduate of Austin High School
Austin, Texas

Ben Crenshaw remains after 27 years on tour one of the most popular and talented players on the PGA circuit. His charisma and grace under pressure have made him a gallery favorite from his days at The University of Texas to the 1984 Masters Tournament, where he ended a decade of frustration to capture his first major championship title. His second victory at Augusta in April 1995 secured his place in golf history.

In recent years, Crenshaw has spent considerable time away from the PGA Tour developing his golf course architecture business. Along with partner Bill Coore, the firm of Coore & Crenshaw has done restoration work on some of the finest courses in the country.
