MUNICH — Bernhard Langer has bid farewell to the European tour on home soil in Germany 50 years after the two-time Masters champion made his debut. The 66-year-old Langer missed the cut at the BMW International Open in Munich on Friday but says he will cherish the "wonderful memories" he's made. He says "It's kind of been a dream come true for me, growing up in a village of 800 people where nobody knew what golf was." Langer made his European Tour debut in 1974 and played more than 500 events, claiming 42 wins.
