The DP World Tour has been blessed by some of the best players to ever appear in professional golf.
From Seve to Bernhard, and from Monty to Sir Nick. Europe has produced some of the most talented figures to ever walk a fairway.
Now the tour is no longer called the European Tour, a new crop of superstars is coming through to challenge the legends at the top of the win pile.
Ballesteros still leads the way on this particular leaderboard with 50 official European Tour wins – with his most recent coming at the Peugeot Spanish Open in 1995.
He won for the first time as a 19-year-old at the 1976 Dutch Open, beating Howard Clark by eight strokes.
By the looks of it, the legendary Spaniard won’t be replaced at the top of the wins list for some time – but how many European Tour titles did the players achieve below him?
