Angel Cabrera's Net Worth
Angel Cabrera is a renowned Argentine professional golfer with a net worth of $15 million. Born on September 12, 1969, in Córdoba, Argentina, Cabrera has made his mark on both the European Tour and PGA Tour. He is celebrated for his victories in the 2007 U.S. Open and the 2009 Masters, becoming the first Argentine to win either tournament. His distinct waddling gait earned him the nickname 'El Pato' (The Duck).
At just 10 years old, Cabrera began his journey at the Córdoba Country Club as a caddy, unaware that golf would become his life's passion. The club became his second home, where he honed his skills alongside other caddies competing for money.
His powerful swing soon captured the attention of club members, leading one generous member to buy Cabrera his first set of clubs at age 16. Although it took four attempts, Cabrera qualified for the European Tour in 1995. Turning professional at 20, he secured his first win at the 2005 BMW Championship, a premier event on the European Tour aside from the majors and the World Golf Championships.
Since then, Cabrera has participated in around 150 PGA events. Notably, by 2009, he and Tiger Woods were the only active PGA Tour members to have won both the U.S. Open and the Masters. Cabrera, a family man, lives in his hometown of Córdoba with his wife and two children.
