An avid tennis player, Ortiz- Patino's talents earned him spots in both the French and Italian Open tennis tournaments before a shoulder injury eventually forced him to redirect his tal- ents to skiing and golf. Ortiz-Patino's interest in the TURF INSECTICIDE game dates back to around 1956 when he caddied for Dai Rees in the Italian Open. In lieu of a bag fee, Rees presented Ortiz-Patino with tickets to the 1957 Ryder Cup at Lindrick in England. In 1985, Ortiz-Patino and other businessmen purchased Las Aves Golf Club in Sotogrande.

  • Sporting Legends: Seve Ballesteros
    SPORTING LEGENDS: SEVE BALLESTEROS SPORT: GOLF COMPETITIVE ERA: 1974 - 2008 Severiano "Seve" Ballesteros (born 9 April 1957 in Pedreña, Spain) is a Spanish golfer who was one of the sport's leading figures in the 1980s and 1990s. Ballesteros turned professional in March 1974 at the age of 16. In 1976, he burst onto the international scene with a second-place finish in The Open Championship; he went on to win the European Tour Order of Merit (money title) that year, and repeated his Order of Merit win the following two years. He would go on to win the Order of Merit six times, a record at that time (since surpassed by Colin Montgomerie). Ballesteros went on to win five major championships: The Masters: 1980, 1983 His 1980 win was the first at Augusta by a European player. The Open Championship: 1979, 1984, 1988. He was also a great at match play; he won the World Match Play Championship five times, and was a mainstay of the European Ryder Cup team for much of the 1980s and 1990s. He scored 20 points out of 37 matches against the United States; his partnership with José María Olazábal was one of the most successful in the history of the competition, with 11 wins and two halved matches out of 15 pairs matches. While Ballesteros was a member of European sides that won the Ryder Cup in 1985, retained the Cup in 1987 and 1989, and regained the Cup in 1995, the pinnacle of his career in the competition came in 1997, when he captained the winning European side at Valderrama Golf Club in Sotogrande, Spain.
