About Manuel Villegas
Born 1984. Manuel Villegas is a Colombian golfer.
Manuel Villegas Restrepo (born 3 December 1984) is a Colombian professional golfer who currently plays on the Korn Ferry Tour and PGA Tour Latinoamérica. He is also the brother of PGA Tour player Camilo Villegas.
Professional career After graduating from the University of Florida in 2007, Villegas turned professional in 2008 and marked his professional debut with a win at the 2008 Colombian Open.
In 2009 Villegas played a number of events in South America including one win at the Máster Profesional on the Colombian golf tour. However, in 2012 his career suffered a setback when he fractured his right hand, forcing him to play a reduced schedule on the first season of PGA Tour Latinoamérica. This win along with a further two top-3 finishes on PGA Tour Latinoamérica helped Villegas to a 5th-place finish on the PGA Tour Latinoamérica Order of Merit for 2013, an achievement which earned him playing rights on the Web.com Tour for the 2014 season.
