One Legged Golfer at Dunhill Links Championship

Manuel de los Santos is 25, from the Dominican Republic and is currently taking part in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in Scotland off a handicap of 3. So far not so remarkable, except that he lost a leg in a car crash in France and now plays golf without the use of an artificial limb! This is truly remarkable (I've still got all my limbs and struggle to play to a handicap of 19!) and after two rounds he and his professional partner (Richard Bland) are lying equal 13th with a score of 16 under par!!
