Couples, Fred & Curtis Strange Autographed Trading Card

Fred Couples
Born: October 3, 1959 in Seattle, WA.

Card Size: 2 1/2" x 3 1/2"

The 1992 Masters was won by Fred Couples, arguably one of the most popular Masters champions ever. Couples played well all week, and as the final round made the turn, it became clear that this tournament would come down to two men, Fred Couples and Ray Floyd. So many Masters have been won or lost on "Amen Corner", the 3-hole stretch of 11, 12 and 13, none more amazingly than the 1992 Masters.

Lurking close to the front of the 12th green, Rae's Creek waits; a shot hit short is supposed to roll back into her embrace. Tempting fate, Couples hit a shot that rolled the wrong way. Somehow, some way, his ball rolled halfway down the bank and stopped, inexplicably clinging to the bank. As if by divine intervention, Couples saved his par, keeping hope alive. With this nod from the gods, Couples finished at 275, winner by 2 over Floyd.

Curtis Strange
Born: Jan. 30, 1955 in Norfolk, VA.

Curtis Strange is considered one of the leading golfers of the 1980s as 16 of his 17 PGA Tour victories took place in that decade. He topped the PGA Tour money list in 1985 and 1987 and in 1988, when he became the first man to win a million dollars in official money on the Tour in a season. His two majors were the 1988 and 1989 U.S. Opens.

He played on five Ryder Cup teams (1983, 1985, 1987, 1989, and 1995) and captained the team in 2002.
