Ian Woosnam announces he’s not playing in the Masters anymore

Ian Woosnam won the 1991 Masters for his lone major championship.

Ian Woosnam, who won the 1991 Masters Tournament, has announced that his days of competing at Augusta National Golf Club are over.

Woosnam, 64, was a fixture at the Masters since 1988, missing only the 2007 and 2020 tournaments during that stretch. He made 12 straight cuts between 1989 and 2000 but didn’t make the cut again until 2008, which turned out to be his last time playing the weekend.

Other than his ’91 win—after which he received his green jacket from Nick Faldo—his best finish at Augusta was a tie for 14th, which he did twice.

‘Woosie’ won the European Tour Order of Merit twice (1987, 1990) and was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2017.

He ascended to World No. 1 on Monday of Masters week in 1991 and six days later donned the green jacket for his lone major title.
