There are few more mesmerizing talents in golf than Japan's Ryo Ishikawa, the 19-year-old who has already won seven times on the Japanese professional tour. Ishikawa, though, is drawing more attention as he heads into his third Masters for what he is doing to aid victims of last month's earthquake and tsunami in his native country: namely, donating all his prize money from 2011 to relief efforts.

An impressive gesture from the 19 year old. In an era when so many athletes don't use the platform they have for good it is great to see Ishikawa do this.

Definitely rooting for him this year.
