Until some one can work his birth place in to the main article cleanly (as required by the style manual), I'm removing his birth place. He was born in Fuenterrabia, Spain. Trevor1 05:11, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
"Olazábal also holds the world record distance for a completed putt. During the 1999 European Ryder Cup team's Concorde flight to the United States, he holed a putt which travelled the full length of the cabin. The ball was in motion for 26.17s, during which time the Concorde, at 1,270mph, travelled 9.232 miles, beating US golfer Brad Faxon's previous record of 8.5 miles, set in 1997."
