Never really heard much from the guy but for his amazing win in the 1987 masters where he upstaged Greg Norman with an unbelievable Chip and Run at a point when it looked very very unlikely that he would get up and down in two and looked certain that Norman would get to wear the Green Jacket. That was Larry's only Major victory and he has won only four other tournaments on tour. That 140 foot chip and the celebrations after that next to the 11th green at Augusta still brings goose bumps each time I see the video. One can only imagine how Norman must have felt after that went in.
