Martin Kaymer: Ringmaster of the golfing circus

It is more than 10 years since Martin Kaymer stood at the peak of the golfing world.

This is the man who won two Major championships, was ranked No.1 in the world, and holed the putt that rounded off the Miracle of Medinah in the unforgettable Ryder Cup of 2012.

But even as victory eluded him for more than a decade following his 2014 US Open triumph, the German continued to command enormous respect from his peers and golf fans around the world.

His enduring popularity may be explained by his life philosophy, as described during his appearance on the LIV Golf Fairway To Heaven podcast in 2024.

He said: “There are no shortcuts to success. No matter what you do, you have to put in the time and the effort. Nothing is given to you.

“Excuses don’t get you anywhere. You have to find solutions to become better and more successful in life – not in terms of trophies and money, just in being comfortable with who you are, and surrounding yourself with people who make you better and inspire you.
