Three things you don’t know about me… Martin Kaymer

Martin Kaymer reveals three (tasty) secrets to Worldwide Golf in our latest series. The reserved German has some hobbies and habits that will definitely surprise you.

  1. Since 2007 I started collecting one dollar bills – don’t ask me why! It just started one day when I did not want to spend a single dollar bill. Even when I tip I would rather give five dollars. And no, for those of youw ho are thinking it, I do not collect them for strip clubs!
  2. I have a 59 on my golf ball. I shot a 59 in 2006 in a golf tournament in the EPD Tour in Germany.
  3. I am a very good bunker raker. Craig, my caddie, always says that I would be a great caddie if it only came down to bunker raking. So next time you see me playing in the practice round, check the bunkers afterwards and I assure you that you will be impressed!
