It's about something far more impressive. Standing at just 5 feet 4 inches tall, Woosnam became part of an elite group called the Big Five, a collection of European golfers who completely changed professional golf in the late 1970s and 1980s. This group included legends like Seve Ballesteros, Nick Faldo, Bernhard Langer, and Sandy Lyle. All five were born within 12 months of each other, and all won at least one major championship. But here's what made Woosnam special. Despite having fewer major wins than some of his rivals, he reached the number one spot in the world rankings on April 7, 1991, and stayed there for 50 weeks. How did he pull that off? The answer lies in his relentless consistency and the fierce rivalries that pushed him to his absolute limits.
