Zimbabwean · Durban, South Africa · Born 28 January 1957Three majors in two years — Nick Price's 1992-1994 peak was the most dominant stretch in golf outside of Nicklaus and Woods.
Nick Price's peak between 1992 and 1994 is regarded as the most dominant stretch in golf outside of the eras of Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods, a run in which the Zimbabwean won three major championships — the 1992 and 1994 PGA Championships and the 1994 Open Championship — and reached world number one. Known for his fast, efficient swing and exceptional ball-striking, Price was runner-up at the Masters on two occasions and never quite completed the career Grand Slam, but his consistency across the early-to-mid 1990s made him briefly the best player in the world. He was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2003 and has remained closely involved in the sport as a course designer and mentor.
