Other than Phil, there has not been a lower ranked player win a major since the beginning of 2012. As noted above from 2002-2011 this is type of longshot win happened fairly regularly -- at the Open Alone Curtis and Hamilton were certainly longer odds, and lets not forget old Tom Watson nearly winning it. But now a days it rarely ever happens. [/QUOTE]
