Priscillo Diniz

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Priscillo Diniz (born 12 December 1948 in São Paulo) is a Brazilian golfer. He comes from a family which boasts several other professional golfers, including his grandfather, but he didn't turn professional himself until the age of twenty eight, having previously been a practicing lawyer. As an amateur he was twice Brazilian Amateur champion and he also won the 1975 South American Amateur Championship.

In his regular (that is under fifty) career he won several titles on the South American circuit. He played on the European Tour in 1977 and 1978, but with little success. In 2000 he was the Rookie of the Year on the European Seniors Tour and finished sixth on that tour's Order of Merit. He has won two European Seniors Tour events, the 2000 Daily Telegraph European Seniors Match Play and the 2001 Royal Westmoreland Barbados Open.
