F
Frank Urban "Fuzzy" Zoeller, Jr. (born November
11, 1951 in New Albany, Indiana) is a professional
golfer. He attended the University of Houston and
turned professional in 1973.

In 1979 Zoeller became one of only three golfers
to have won The Masters Tournament|The Masters in
his first appearance in the event. The other two
were the winners of the first two Masters, Horton
Smith and Gene Sarazen. His other win in a major
championship came at the 1984 U.S. Open
(golf)|U.S. Open.

Zoeller is also known as having made a
controversial remark regarding Tiger Woods during
the 1997 Masters tournament. With drink in hand,
Zoeller made the remarks after finishing his final
Masters round, a poor 78 that placed him in a tie
for 34th in the final standings.

Zoeller's comment at the Masters were: "That
little boy is driving well and he's putting well.
He's doing everything it takes to win. So, you
know what you guys do when he gets in here? You
pat him on the back and say congratulations and
enjoy it and tell him not to serve fried chicken
next year. Got it?"

Then Zoeller smiled, snapped his fingers, and
walked away. Then he turned and added, "or collard
greens or whatever the hell they serve." 

Zoeller joined the Champions Tour in 2002 and won
a senior major, the Senior PGA Championship that
year. As of May 2005 his only other Champions Tour
win is the 2004 MasterCard Championship.
