When Luke Donald efeated Martin Kaymer
to win the Accenture Match
Play Championship this
past February in Tucson, he
did more than win his most
significant tournament, more
than jump to No. 3 in the world
rankings, more than collect
another fat paycheck. He
got some pay back.¶ A 2009
newspaper story in Britain
cited Donald as the poster boy
for complacency in the age
of multi-millionaire golfers.
“Luke Donald Disease” was the
alleged malady, its symptoms
being a lack of drive to be the
best and contentment with
taking a slice of purses swollen
in the age of Tiger Woods.
