Behind every good man…
Sergio Garcia wasn’t alone at Augusta.
Even after he missed a four-foot putt on the 18th to win The Masters and thoughts that he’d never win his major were rife and the that he just wouldn’t be able to see it through was prevalent, in the playoff, his fiancee met him as he went into the club house and she just hit him with a high five.
What are you worried about? We’re going to do this.
Nothing negative, nothing sympathetic. Just go out and get the job done. I believe in you.
Paul McGinley and Padraig Harrington raved about the role of Angela Akins in Sergio Garcia’s career after the tournament.
They said she had a fiestiness and that she was a driving force.
You wouldn’t have needed the inside information though to know that their connection was real and powerful. Garcia’s partner watched from the side as her fiancee putted for yet another chance to win a major and you could see the angst on her face.
After 21 years and 74 times of asking, he finally did it. And she swung every club with him.

Not even Justin Rose could begrudge the Spaniard afterwards who paid the perfect tribute to Seve Ballesteros, who would’ve turned 60 on the same day Sergio Garcia became a major champion.
After 21 years & 74 attempts, Sergio Garcia can finally call himself a major champion. Seve would be proud. #TheMasters pic.twitter.com/L0U16tihJX
