Bob Charles (golfer)

Bob Charles, New Zealand golfer
Sir Robert James Charles (born 14 March 1936) is a New Zealand professional golfer. His achievements over five decades rank him among the most successful left-handed golfers of all time, being the first lefty to win a golf major, winning more than 70 titles, and beating his age twice during a tournament as a 71-year-old.

Although Charles plays golf left-handed, he is naturally right-handed.
