Nick Faldo, the celebrated golfer, describes his rise to multi-millionaire status as World No 1. A notorious perfectionist, during his career he has garnered many of golf's major prizes, including three Open Championships, two US Masters and 29 European trophies.
Nick Faldo, the celebrated golfer, describes his rise to multi-millionaire status as World No 1. A notorious perfectionist, during his career he has garnered many of golf's most glittering trophies, including 5 Majors - Open Championships in 1987, 1990 and 1992, and US Masters in 1989 and 1990 - and 29 European wins. In the past renowned as a steely, inscrutable professional on and off the golf course, recently he has assumed a far more relaxed and approachable posture, and is now far less hard on himself if his performance falls anywhere short of absolute perfection. His career earnings have recently exceeded the $10 million barrier - in 1992 Faldo earned #171 for every shot he played in Europe - while most of his #5 million annual income comes from lucrative world-wide endorsement contracts with Mizuno, Bridgestone golf balls, Audemars Piguet watches, Pringle clothes and Polygram coaching videos.
His interests, however, are not merely confined to golf - he owns five cars, including two Porsches, which he drives in controlled conditions on a race-track; he has taken flying lessons; he owns a chalet in Switzerland; he's a big pop music fan and particularly friendly with Phil Collins.
