thread_title:  Golf Digest Links are Broken 

message: I made it like the others I have been doing on pro golfers. That's keep them simple(Stressing who won won and with what score and if there were early knockouts from the playoffs, stating what score eliminated them) and Garcia is a perfect example of why. Multiple player playoffs are extremely complicated.
The box got off to a bad start. It said Weir won the 2000 Tour Championship with birdie but all other players made par. No they didn't.
:Els barely missed a 40-foot putt for birdie in the playoff. Then, after Toms missed a 20-foot putt for birdie in sudden death, and with Garcia looking at a putt for bogey, Weir finished the job, knocking his winning 6-foot putt into the cup. 
The article doesn't say whether Els or Toms made par either. All it states is they missed their birdie putts.
Another mistake in the box. The Players Championship playoff. It said Goydos made bogey, which isn't what happened.
 
:The first playoff in 21 years at The Players didn't last long. Goydos, hitting first, watched helplessly as a gust caused his wedge to balloon into the cloudy skies and land with a splash a few feet in front of the green.
:Garcia, with no margin for error, followed with a wedge that landed on the green, caught a slope and stopped 4 feet away. He missed the birdie putt, but it didn't matter.
:Goydos wound up with a double bogey and a horrible coincidence.
How many of us have seen playoffs end with a golfer missing a par putt to lose? He or she doesn't putt out, instead the golfer walks over and congratulates the winner. The player didn't finish the hole and this is stroke play which means- No concessions.
When doing the playoff boxes keep it simple. If anything particularly noteworthy happens in them, Craig Parry holing out at Doral, Ray Floyd chipping in at Doral to beat Nicklaus, Goydos dumping it in the water- Put it the article's narrative.- William 19:07, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Garcia is third in major Championship top 10s for somebody who hasn't won  a major 

message: I removed the template . The name structure is of little importance, certainly not enough to figure prominently at the top of the article. The subject is - as used in the page title - not even known as "Fernández", so a reference to it is cause of surprise and possibly confusing. Anyone interested in Spanish name's structure will likely not be looking for it here, and anyone looking here is unlikely to be interested in Spanish name's structure. - Nabla (talk) 20:40, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

message: The infobox has him listed as being 160lbs.  Is this what the PGA still lists him at?  He obviously hasn't been that weight in years; he's much larger, now.  Is this still his official listing? --Criticalthinker (talk) 07:53, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Does García speak Valencian? 

message: Somehow this has morphed from a Spanish PGA Tour event (eg http://www.golftoday.co.uk/news/yeartodate/news99/garcia.html from 1999, http://2008.usopen.com/en_US/bios/bio21209.html) to a Challenge Tour event. Not mentioned here: 1997 Challenge Tour and missing from official website. We just have to revert any edits that mention the Challenge Tour and hopefully this error will fade away in time.

thread_title:  1997 Catalonian Open

thread_title:  Suggested addition 

message: https://www.catgolf.com/es/palmares/campeonato-de-cataluna-profesionales has this win at Sant Cugat but calls it the Catalan Professional Championship, although Garcia, an amateur, was playing in it.
http://hemeroteca.abc.es/nav/Navigate.exe/hemeroteca/sevilla/abc.sevilla/1997/11/03/096.html has a paragraph. The event was played in late October/early November 1997. It says "El amateur castellonense Sergio García marcó en Sant Cugat un hito al convertirse en el primer jugador de su categoría en adjudicarse el Campeonato de Cataluña para profesionales, con un total de 192 golpes, 18 bajo par, tras hacer ayer 64 golpes (-6). Domingo Hospital fue segundo." which translates roughly as "The Castellón amateur Sergio Garcia marked a milestone in Sant Cugat to become the first player in his category to win the Catalan Professional Championship, with a total of 192 strokes, 18 under par, after making 64 strokes yesterday (-6). Domingo Hospital was second.
Seems it wasn't the Catalan Open but the Catalan Professional Championship. Note that the Catalan Open was a European Tour event from 1989 to 1996. Nigej (talk) 14:51, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
