Let's make this birthday one to remember.

85 years old (Born on April 24, 1940)

Happy Birthday, Alex Caygill! Seven-time European Tour champion and proud recipient of the Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year Award—clearly, you've mastered golf better than most people master tying their shoes. Your swing is smoother than birthday cake frosting and your victories sweeter still.

May your day be filled with fewer bunkers and more birdies; may you always find fairways wider than a birthday grin. Here's to another year of sinking putts effortlessly while making it look easy enough for us mere mortals to believe we could do it too (spoiler alert: we can't). Cheers to you, Alex!
