He came, he saw, he conquered: Curtis' great coup came in 2003 when he recorded what was the best placing of his professional career – 13th place at the Western Open (now the BMW Championship) to qualify for the British Open. Curtis went on to win on his Major debut: a feat that had not been repeated since 1913, when Francis Ouimet won the US Open. This season Curtis once again demonstrated his love of the large events. He finished second at the PGA Championship, seventh at the British Open and fourth at The Barclays, the first of the play-off tournaments.
