Miguel Angel Jimenez

One of the most colorful and beloved characters you’ll find on any golf course, Miguel Angel Jimenez has taken to Seniors golf like a duck to water.

The 52-year-old has a win in each of his three seasons to date on the Champions Tour, but has yet to get his hands on a first Major.

Having impressed with rounds of 68 and 70 in the first two days, Jimenez has himself well-positioned right toward the top of the leaderboard, and will be hoping to kick on and seize control on Saturday and Sunday.
