Cabrera wins second senior major in seven days

Angel Cabrera won the Senior PGA Championship at Congressional to secure his second senior major title in seven days.

The 55-year-old from Argentina followed his win at the Regions Tradition on Monday with victory in Maryland.

Cabrera, the 2007 US Open winner and 2009 Masters champion, overhauled Padraig Harrington in the closing holes to win by one shot.

Irishman Harrington ended in a tie for second place with Denmark's Thomas Bjorn, another former European Ryder Cup player and captain.

In April, Cabrera missed the cut in his first appearance at the Masters for six years following his release from prison.

He was found guilty in 2021 of charges which included assault and intimidation of former partners.

Cabrera was released in August 2023 after serving 30 months in South American prisons, and has apologised in subsequent interviews., external
