Ariel Canete


Residence: Santa Teresita, Argentina
DOB: 07/02/1975
Ariel Canete finished near the bottom of the European Order of Merit in 2006 – low down enough that he lost his Tour Card and had to go back to the qualifying school at San Roque in November where he similarly underperformed. But then in January he got a chance to play in the seventh tournament on the 2007 European Tour calendar – the Joburg Open played at the Royal Johannesburg and Kensington Golf Club – and promptly won it! OK, so the field wasn’t exactly the strongest, but there were still over 200 other outstanding golfers fighting for the 158,000 euro first prize.

 2007  BMW PGA Championship

Between 24th and 27th May 2007, the BMW PGA Championship was played out on a rain-lashed West Course at Wentworth in Surrey. Traditionally, the PGA attracts one of the strongest fields on the European Tour and this time was no exception with Vijay Singh, Ernie Els, Michael Campbell and others all making the trip across the pond. It was not, however, one of the better known superstars who walked off with the trophy and 725,000 Euro first prize, but Anders Hansen from Denmark who holed a 25 foot birdie putt on the first sudden-death play-off hole against England’s Justin Rose. This was only Hansen’s second victory on Tour – bizarrely the only other win was the same tournament – then called the Volvo PGA – five years earlier in 2002.
