Camilo Villegas is all about energy. Only now the 42-year-old Colombian feels he is on the receiving end of it. Villegas is returning to the Masters for the first time in nine years, and so much has transpired. Mostly it was the loss of his daughter. Mia was 18 months old when she was diagnosed with brain tumors. She died in July 2020.

Villegas is back in the Masters for the first time in nine years.

“This game has given me so many great things, and in the process, it kicks your butt,” Villegas said that Sunday at the Bermuda Championship. “Life has given me so many great things, and in the process it kicks your butt, too.” “I think everything becomes easier when you understand that’s normal,” Villegas said of the hand he and his wife were dealt. “I can sit here and ask myself, ‘Why is Mia not here?’ And you can make it so abnormal and unique. But when you’re part of a club of losing a child, you realize the club is huge. And all of a sudden, it’s a lot more normal than you think. The ups and downs are normal.
Energy is a word Villegas uses all the time, and he has it tattooed on his right wrist with a “+” in front of it — positive energy. What he used to bring is what he now receives. It just didn’t translate into the kind of scores that would allow him to keep his card. They went to the caddie lounge and he told Villegas what to expect. Campra didn’t care if Villegas had a card at the end of the year. He told Villegas he would get worse before he got better. And he didn’t want him to play too much to keep old habits from creeping in.
