David Toms


Residence: Shreveport, Louisiana
DOB: 04/01/1967 		As of writing – May 2007 – David Toms stands 19th in the Official World Golf Rankings – and has been one of the most consistent golfers on the US Tour over the past decade. He won the 15-17 Boys' event at the 1984 Junior World Golf Championships before attending Louisiana State University. He joined the US PGA Tour in 1992 and has won 12 Tour events. His most recent was the 2006 Sony Open in Hawaii where his third round 61 set the course record at the Waialae Country Club. But undoubtedly the highlight of his career was victory in his, to date, only Major - the 2001 PGA Championship played at the Athletic Club in Atlanta, where he beat a heartbroken (and then Major-less) Phil Mickelson into second place. A big-hearted charity man, the David Toms Foundation has made over $2.5m of grants for unprivileged children. He is also building a name as a golf course architect with several courses under construction – and worked with Rees Jones on the Redstone Course which plays hosts to the Shell Houston Open. Our biography photo of David was taken at the Doral Resort in Miami during the World Golf Championships in March 2007 which was won by – you guessed it – Tiger Woods.

 2007  World Golf Championships - CA – Doral

Tiger Woods bagged another $1.35m for his two-shot win over Ryder Cup team mate Brett Wetterich at the Blue Monster Course at the Doral Resort in Miami, Florida between 22nd-25th March 2007. No one ever got closer than three shots to Tiger on the final afternoon. The World Golf Championships are played over five continents – and feature the top 50 players from the Official World Golf Rankings along with top finishers on the money lists of six Tours comprising the International Federation of PGA Tours (PGA TOUR, European Tour, Australasian Tour, Japan Golf Tour, Asian Tour and Southern Africa Tour). The formats vary - match play, strokeplay and team - but the purses are always big! The WGC CA Championship is the fifth tournament Woods has won at least three times in a row.
