Colin Stuart Montgomerie (born 23 June 1963) is a Scottishprofessional golfer. He has won a record eightEuropean TourOrder of Merit titles, including a streak of seven consecutive ones from 1993 to 1999. He has won 31 European Tour events, the most of any British player, placing him fourth on theall-time list of golfers with most European Tour victories.

Montgomerie won three consecutiveVolvo PGA Championships at Wentworth Club between 1998 and 2000. He has finished runner-up on five occasions inmajor championships and his career-highworld ranking is second.[2] He was inducted into theWorld Golf Hall of Fame in 2013.[3]

After turning 50 in 2013, Montgomerie has had a successful career on thePGA Tour Champions andEuropean Senior Tour, including winning threesenior major championships.

Early life

[edit]

Although Scottish by birth and ancestry, he was raised inYorkshire, England, where his father, James Montgomerie, was Managing Director ofFox's Biscuits.[4] He spent a number of years with theIlkley Golf Club, where he was tutored by the past professional Bill Ferguson. He was educated at bothLeeds Grammar School andStrathallan School,Perthshire. During his time in Leeds, he became a supporter ofLeeds United.[5] His father later became the secretary ofRoyal Troon Golf Club, one of Scotland's most famous clubs.

Amateur career

[edit]

Montgomerie became one of the first British golfers to go to a United States college, attendingHouston Baptist University, where he played on the golf team and became its top player. He won three important Scottish amateur tournaments – the 1983 Scottish Youths Championship, the 1985Scottish Amateur Stroke Play Championship and the 1987Scottish Amateur Championship.

He played for Great Britain and Ireland twice in theEisenhower Trophy (1984 and 1986) and twice in theWalker Cup (1985 and 1987). He was also part of the Scottish team, winning the 1985European Amateur Team Championship at Halmstad Golf Club, North Course, in Sweden. Before turning pro he considered a career in sports management, utilising his degree in business management and law; the interview process included a golf outing that convinced the firm he should become a client rather than an employee.[6]

Professional career

[edit]

In 1988, Montgomerie turned professional before the season began. He was named the Rookie of the Year on the European Tour that year. He quickly developed into one of Europe's top pros, winning his first event at the 1989Portuguese Open TPC by 11 shots, and his second, beating a world class field, at the 1991Scandinavian Masters at Royal Drottningholm Golf Club in Sweden. He made hisRyder Cup debut later in1991. He finished first on theEuropean Tour Order of Merit every year from 1993 to 1999 (a record for most consecutive Orders of Merit), and has 31 victories on the tour, including the 1998, 1999, and 2000 Volvo PGA Championships at Wentworth, England. However, despite many near-misses, Montgomerie was unable to win on the PGA Tour.

Montgomerie first reached the top-10 in theOfficial World Golf Rankings in 1994, and spent400 weeks in the top-10.[7] His highest ranking was number two. In his prime Montgomerie was considered one of the best drivers of the golf ball in the world and became a very precise iron player, often able to judge the distance he hit the ball exactly from long range.

Montgomerie came first in the Volvo Bonus Pool every year from 1993 to 1998. The Volvo Bonus Pool was an extra tranche of prize money awarded at the end of each European Tour season from 1988 to 1998 to the regular members of the tour who had had the best performances over the season.[8]

His form fell away gradually in the new millennium, partly due to marriage problems, and his ranking slumped to 82nd in the world, but he came back strongly in 2005, winning a record eighth European Tour Order of Merit and returning to the top ten in the World Rankings.[9] Late in 2005 he became the first man to win 20 million Euros on the European Tour—topping the European Tour's all-time highest earners list. He won for the first time in nearly two years at theSmurfit Kappa European Open in July 2007. In 2008, Montgomerie slipped out of the top 100 players in the world ranking system.[10] A runner-up finish at the 2008 French Open in June boosted him back up the rankings, but his good play was short-lived, and as a result Montgomerie failed to qualify forNick Faldo's 2008 Ryder Cup team. In March 2009, Montgomerie played in his milestone 500thEuropean Tour event at theOpen de Andalucia where he made the cut, but was not in contention during the weekend. He remained the leader in career earnings on the European Tour until 2010, when he was surpassed byErnie Els.

After nearly two years without a top-10 finish, Montgomerie posted a final round of 68 for a share of 7th place in the 2011BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth. Despite the drop in form, his influence remained strong. In 2012, Montgomerie was named by theGolf Club Managers' Association's Golf Club Management magazine as the seventh most powerful person in British golf.[11] In August 2012, Montgomerie finished tied for 6th at theJohnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles, his highest finish in over four years.

In June 2013, after turning 50, Montgomerie joined theChampions Tour, where he made his debut in theConstellation Senior Players Championship, one of the fivesenior major championships.[12] On 25 May 2014, Montgomerie won his first senior major championship at theSenior PGA Championship.[13] He followed this up on 13 July 2014, when he claimed his second senior major at theU.S. Senior Open.[14] On 24 May 2015, Montgomerie defended hisSenior PGA Championship title to win his third senior major. However, in 2016 he narrowly missed out on making it three Senior PGA Championships in a row – finishing second and three shots behind winnerRocco Mediate.[15] He won twice on the senior circuit in 2017, winning the inauguralJapan Airlines Championship before claiming his sixth Champions Tour win at theSAS Championship.[16] His most recent victory came at theInvesco QQQ Championship in 2019.[17]

Major championships

[edit]

Montgomerie is generally considered to be one of the best golfers never to have won a major championship, after finishing in second place on five separate occasions. During what most consider to be his best years in the 1990s Montgomerie had several near-misses. A third place at the1992 U.S. Open atPebble Beach Golf Links was the first of these. He was prematurely congratulated byJack Nicklaus who said "Congratulations on your first U.S. Open victory" to Montgomerie after he finished the 18th hole on Sunday.[18]Tom Kite, who was still on the golf course when Montgomerie finished, won the championship.

At the1994 U.S. Open, played atOakmont Country Club, Montgomerie lost in a three-manplayoff to Ernie Els (a playoff which also included Loren Roberts). Montgomerie shot 78 to trail the 74s shot by Els and Roberts, with Els winning at the 20th extra hole.

At the1995 PGA Championship, Montgomerie birdied the final three holes of theRiviera Country Club course in the final round, to tieSteve Elkington at 17 under par. On the first sudden-death playoff hole, after being in a better position after two shots, Montgomerie missed his putt, while Elkington holed from 35 feet to claim the title.[citation needed]

Els defeated Montgomerie at the1997 U.S. Open, played atCongressional Country Club. Montgomerie opened the tournament with a 65 but shot a 76 in the second round. A bogey on the 71st hole dropped Montgomerie one shot behind Els, who parred the last to win.

At the2006 U.S. Open, played on the West course of theWinged Foot Golf Club, Montgomerie had yet another chance to win his first major championship. He stood in the middle of the 18th fairway in the final round having sunk a 50-foot birdie putt on the 17th green, which put him in the joint lead with Phil Mickelson. While waiting in position on the 18th fairway for the group in front to finish, Montgomerie switched his club from a 6-iron to a 7-iron, assuming adrenaline would kick in. Once the wait was over, he hit the approach shot poorly, ending up short and right of the green, in thick rough. He pitched onto the green, and then three-putted from 30 feet to lose the tournament by one stroke. After the loss, Montgomerie said, "At my age I've got to think positively. I'm 43 next week, and it's nice I can come back to this tournament and do well again, and I look forward to coming back here again next year and trying anotherU.S. Open disaster."[19]Geoff Ogilvy won the championship.

Montgomerie's best finish in theMasters Tournament came in1998 when he finished tied for 8th.

AtThe Open Championship in 2001 atRoyal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club, Montgomerie started brightly with an opening 65, and still remained ahead after 36 holes, but he fell away over the weekend. He was also in contention with two rounds to play atMuirfield in 2002 andRoyal Troon Golf Club in 2004, but failed to capitalise and finished midway down the field. His best finish in the Championship came in2005 atSt Andrews, where he finished second toTiger Woods, who beat him by five shots.

In 2016, Montgomerie came through Open Qualifying at Gailes Links to qualify for his home Open at Royal Troon.[20] He had the honour of hitting the opening tee shot at the tournament[21] and ended up making the cut.[22]

FollowingSergio García's victory at the 2017 Masters, Montgomerie (with 75 starts) trailed onlyJay Haas (87) andLee Westwood (76) as the player with the most starts without a major title.[23]

Ryder Cup

[edit]
Practising before the2004 Ryder Cup

Despite his disappointments in the majors, Montgomerie is heralded as one of the greatest Ryder Cup players of all time. To date he has been a member of the European team on eight occasions, and has never lost in a singles match. He holds a win-lose-draw record of 20–9–7, thus giving him a total points scored tally of 23.5, only 5 points behind the all-time record held bySergio García. He has played pivotal roles in several of the matches. He halved the last hole withScott Hoch to obtain the half-point that won Europe the cup in1997, and sank the winning putt,[24] in what is considered to be his finest hour in the2004 staging of the event.

Montgomerie was not part of Nick Faldo's 2008 Ryder Cup team, with the wildcards going toPaul Casey and Ian Poulter. Montgomerie captained the Great Britain and Ireland team in the first four stagings of theSeve Trophy, losing in 2000 but winning in 2002, 2003, and 2005.

On 28 January 2009, it was announced that Montgomerie would be the captain the European team at the2010 Ryder Cup atCeltic Manor.[25] On 4 October 2010, Montgomerie led the European team to victory, 1412 to 1312.[26] On the same day he also announced that he would be stepping down as captain of the European Team.[27] In December 2010, he accepted the BBC Sports Personality Coach of the Year award as captain of the victorious Ryder Cup team.[28]

Montgomerie has been the playing captain of the European team in theRoyal Trophy, played against a team from Asia. Europe was successful on both those occasions. He has the distinction having been a victorious player and captain in the Ryder Cup, Seve Trophy and Royal Trophy.[29]

Colin Montgomerie at theAustrian Open 2006

In 2011, Montgomerie was named president of the English junior golf charity, the Golf Foundation, and in 2012 the Scottish first minister, Alex Salmond, named him as an ambassador for the Scottish junior golf programme, ClubGolf.[30]

In March 2015, Montgomerie accepted the captaincy ofLondon Scottish Golf Club in Wimbledon to mark that club's 150th anniversary.[31]

Montgomerie was also a columnist for the Scottish golf magazine,Bunkered, between 2008 and 2010.

Montgomerie represents theTurnberry resort in Scotland, where there is a Colin Montgomerie Golf Academy.

Personal life

[edit]

Montgomerie met his first wife Eimear Wilson, fromTroon,[4] when he was a good amateur and she was a promotions assistant. She was a 17-year-old law student atEdinburgh University and a spectator at an amateur championship in Nairn, at which Montgomerie destroyed the field.[32] The couple had three children, and lived inOxshott, Surrey. In 2002, Eimear gave Montgomerie an ultimatum to choose between golf and marriage, resulting in Montgomerie spending 10 weeks alone before they agreed to try again.

In 2006, the couple finally broke up, with Eimear suing for divorce on grounds of "unreasonable behaviour due to his obsession with golf",[33] claiming it left her suffering fromanxiety and depression.[34] In 2006, the couple agreed to a clean break divorce settlement of £8 million, in return for Eimear giving up any claim on Colin's future earnings.[35][36]

Since the divorce, he has had various relationships, including Spanish modelInés Sastre,[37] and a divorced neighbour Jo Baldwin, whom he met on the school run.[38] Their split, he suggested, caused his worst run in his professional career.[39]

In 2007, Montgomerie announced his engagement to Scottish millionairessGaynor Knowles. The couple wed on 19 April 2008 at Loch Lomond Golf Club.[40][41] On 8 July 2010, Montgomerie was granted asuper injunction byMr Justice Eady, which came to light when he attended a press conference at the2010 PGA Championship in Wisconsin.[42] In March 2017, he and Knowles divorced.[43] Montgomerie married for the third time in 2023 to his manager, Sarah Casey.[44]

  24. ^Montgomerie is widely credited as having holed the winning putt, althoughIan Poulter birdied on the 15th hole of his match to guarantee a half-point and so mathematically win the Ryder Cup seconds before Montgomerie. This was commentated on by course commentators andRadio Five, whose golf correspondent Ian Coulter recalled in theNews of the World: "My editor said Poulter was three up seconds before Monty hit his putt. Then Colin's putt went in – you can imagine the situation. To have overruled his achievement would have been like trying to denyAlan Shearer a goal that went in off a defender." "This man won us Ryder Cup – not Monty"News of the World (London); 26 September 2004; Geoff Sweet; p. 75. Frank Keating ofThe Guardian also noted this chain of events, writing "radio logged the fact that it was not Montgomerie's putt which actually clinched the cup but Poulter's, a matter of seconds before and a few holes behind."
