Colombian golfer Camilo Villegas received an award by Álvaro Uribe

Currently seventh in the Oficial World Golf Ranking, Colombian golfer Camilo Villegas received the Order of San Carlos from President Álvaro Uribe on Wednesday during a ceremony that took place in the Government Palace.

“I don’t do what I do for a living to receive awards, but when they arrive I know that I’m going in the right direction. This is a huge motivation for me to keep giving my best and be a good ambassador of our country,” said Villegas during a press conference following the ceremony.

Villegas visited the country to open the Club Colombia Masters in the Country Club in Bogotá for which he hosted a golf clinic and a nine-hole exhibition.
