US Masters

[tamada]

This weekend at Augusta saw Hideki Matsuyama get the green jacket as the first Japanese male to win a US major golf tournament.

Tied in 12th place as his first US Masters was rising star 24 year-old Robert MacIntyre from Oban, Scotland. By dint of his 12th place finish, he's automatically invited to compete again next year.

One to watch out for!

Well done young man. Hopefully a long career ahead.

First male Japanese to win a golf major -- anywhere.

Two women from Japan have won majors — Hisako Higuchi at the 1977 LPGA Championship and Hinako Shibuno at the 2019 Women's British Open.

Laan
Tiger Woods was born in California How does that make him Asian?

[Giggle]

Rama IX was born in Massachusetts, does that mean he's not Asian? What bizarre logic.

His mother was Thai. His parents met in Thailand while his father was in SEAsia as a U.S. Army officer during the Vietnam War.

I understand the background of Tiger
Bur someone whos Mother was from England and there Father from Scotland but the infividual say was born in Canada
What does that make the individual? Scotish, British or a Canadian ?
In my books that person would be Canadian and this the reasoning I believe Tiger is American . Looks dont matter
Hope this helps

Asian isn't a nationality though. It's an ethnicity.

So using your reasoning .My late mother was born to English and Irish parents in India .
Does that make her INDIAN ?

[Giggle]

Looks dont matter

Really? You don't understand the difference between nationality and ethnicity?

Wow.
