Tiger tamed by Argentine at U.S. Open
18 Jun 2007
Tiger Woods, the world-renowned superstar of golf, was defeated yesterday by Argentine Angel “El Pato” Cabrera, who came in and snuffed out him and reigning champion Jim Furyk by a mere stroke to win the U.S. Open:
Cabrera carded a one-under-par 69 on the imposing Oakmont Country Club Course for a five-over-par total of 285.He joined Roberto di Vicenzo, winner of the 1967 British Open at Hoylake, as the only Argentinians to win one of golf’s four major titles.
Cabrera was born in Villa Allende, Córdoba, Argentina and started his career in golf as a caddy, going pro in 1989. This win makes Cabrera the first South American to take home the trophy at the U.S. Open.
