Not many golfers have the opportunity to break records, especially one of their own. In the latest event of the PGA Tour Champions, Bernhard Langer has shattered a record that was held by himself after clinching the TimberTech Championship. Langer became the oldest golfer to claim a PGA Tour Champions win. Fans on Twitter could not contain but share their reactions to the historic win.

Nonetheless, Bernhard Langer has already achieved a lot with his latest win coming this weekend. Let’s take a look at Langer’s historic win at Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club in Florida.

Bernhard Langer becomes the oldest PGA Tour-sanctioned event winner

At age of 65, Langer has been dominating the PGA Tour Champions. He shot a 66 in the final round, finishing at 17 under. The German star was six strokes ahead of Paul Goydos and Thongchai Jaidee. This marked Langer’s third victory at TimberTech Championship.

He made the record of becoming the oldest winner of a PGA Tour-sanctioned event at the age of 64 earlier this year, after claiming the Chubb Classic. However, he turned 65 in August and then went on to win TimberTech Championship, shattering his own record of becoming the oldest winner.
