H\u00e4n kuului golfin maailmanlistan kymmenen parhaan joukkoon l\u00e4hes 200 viikon ajan ja h\u00e4net valittiin World Golf Hall of Fameen vuonna 2011.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">Ozakin tie huipulle ei ollut tavanomainen. H\u00e4n pelasi aluksi ammatikseen baseballia, mutta vaihtoi lajin golfiin ja voitti ensimm\u00e4isen ammattilaisturnauksensa vuonna 1973, 26-vuotiaana. Viimeisen voittonsa h\u00e4n otti viel\u00e4 55-vuotiaana.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph\">Major-turnauksissa Ozaki ei koskaan ylt\u00e4nyt voittoon, mutta sijoittui kymmenen parhaan joukkoon muun muassa The Openissa, Mastersissa ja US Openissa. Kansainv\u00e4lisill\u00e4 turnausmatkoilla h\u00e4n kuljetti mukanaan jopa omaa sushikokkia, jotta seurue tuntisi olonsa kotoisammaksi Japanin ulkopuolella.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Masashi \u201dJumbo\u201d Ozaki on kuollut. &#8221;Jumboa&#8221; pidet\u00e4\u00e4n Japanin kaikkien aikojen parhaana golfaajana.
