Answer is 33

He won four before 30 and four after

But he was so close to winning US Open in ‘83, Masters in ‘84, British in ‘84. US Open in ‘87, Masters in ‘91, and obviously British Open in ‘09. He was KC’a third sports franchise and is beloved here. Of all the majors I wish he would have won the obvious one is ‘09 Open...but the one I really would have liked to see him win would have been the ‘83 US Open as he would have been a repeat winner of both US Open and British Open which would have been a helluva feat. Certainly, I would have loved for him to have won a PGA to get the career slam as he seemed like such a good golfer and should have accomplished it

Winning majors in one’s 40’s ain’t easy.
