Roger Chapman of England didn't do much on the European tour, but he joins some select company by following his win at the Senior PGA with a victory at the U.S. Senior Open. Only four other players made majors their first two Champions tour wins: Arnold Palmer (1980 Senior PGA, '81 Senior Open), Jack Nicklaus (1990 Tradition, '90 Senior Players), Peter Jacobsen (2004 Senior Open, '05 Senior Players) and Mike Reid (2005 Senior PGA, '09 Tradition).
