The South African native player has done extremely well for himself throughout his career, with nine major championship wins each in both the regular tour and the Champions Tour. At the impressive age of 29, Gary was the only non-American player to win all four major championship titles, what many call Grand Slam.

Gary was the youngest player to achieve this feat at the time but has since lost that title to another player (only five players now achieving this feat).
