Some notable birthdays on April 24 include Lee Westwood, born on this date in 1973 at Worksop, Nottinghamshire, England. Westwood has not won a major despite a few close calls, but his biggest international impact has been his fervent play in the Ryder Cup Match. Also born on this day are Jonas Blixt 1984 and Bob Lunn, the 1963 U.S. Public Links champion, was born in 1945. He won back to back on tour at Memphis and Atlanta in 1968.
