| 1985 Masters | |
Bernhard Langer won the first of his two Masters championships in 1985, wearing a shockingly loud all-bright-red outfit on Sunday, leading to perhaps the most clashing Green Jacket fashion disaster ever.
But the important part is that Langer won and got that Green Jacket. Langer began the final round four strokes off the lead, but charged down the stretch with four birdies in the last seven holes.
That run allowed Langer to catch and pass Curtis Strange, who was going in the opposite direction with bogeys on Nos. 13, 15 and 18 to drop into a second-place tie with Seve Ballesteros. It was an odd Masters for Strange: He opened with an 80, but made the cut by shooting 65 in the second round. In the final round, despite that opening 80, Strange held a three-stroke lead with six holes to play before stumbling with those three bogeys.
