Just a notes; 'Jumbo' Ozaki has been FINALLY elected to World Golf Hall of Fame today in the Internationals Balloting after many years of being a nominee.

Masashi 'Jumbo' was one of the three Japanese brothers who won 166 tournaments between them as professionals; Jumbo was most successful of them, and one of most successful golfers in World History with 113 Professional wins including 94 on the Japan Tour, with wins spanning over 30 years - he won 12 Order of Merits, but froms aside the good bits, was criticised abroad overseas due to his on-course smoking, and his controversials 'Preferred lies' he constantly used; remembers when Greg Norman nearly had fight with him on-course over it?!

Nonetheless, it's greta that Jumbo who still plays in Japan every week at the age of 63 has finally been inducted to Halls.
