The kid from Dusseldorf, Germany, shot 59 in a mini-tour event in Europe, won twice in eight starts on the Challenge Tour in 2006 and was European Tour Rookie of the Year in 2007, with five top-10 finishes and €754,691. He won the 2008 European Tour season opener, the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship, as well as the BMW International Open in June. He chatted with Woods at the Dubai Desert Classic after finishing second. "This is one worth watching," Padraig Harrington said of the young German.
