Its about time Sergio Garcia finds himself in the winner’s circle. Garcia is coming off some not so great seasons, so winning by 11 strokes in his home country of Spain, at the Castello Masters, certainly should be the remedy for his lack of love for the game. Garcia set a tournament record of 27-under par with rounds of 67,63,64, and 63 at a par 71 course. The closest competitor was Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano at 16-under par. Besides setting a tournament record for the Castello Masters, Garcia set the the overall record on the European Tour. This is Garcia’s first worldwide win since 2008.
Garcia has won the Castello Masters before so it is evident the guy loves playing in his home country, similar to most sports teams, that rather play in front of their home crowd for the added support. Not to mention Garcia’s father is the head pro at the course the Castello Masters is played on.

Surprisingly Garcia’s putting was on fire. For those Sergio Garcia Fans out there, including myself, we know Garcia has come up short in many tournaments because the lack of putting confidence. We saw the switch to the belly that brought some success, but now he is back to a normal length putter and putting better than ever.
So the question that comes to mind is, what is next for Garcia? Is this a sign of great play to come or just a random spark of greatness. Garcia certainly proved to the golf world and critics that he still is a world class player, now that he finds himself ranked in the top 50 in the world. Its great to see Garcia back because he brings a certain flare to the game of golf that is indescribable and amazing to watch.
