Jim Furyk


Residence: Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida
DOB: 05/12/1970 		The man with a swing all his own! In fact, ABC commentator David Feherty likened it to that of an ‘octopus falling out of a tree.’ Still, who cares what the swing looks like if you can win a US Open? Furyk was born in Pennsylvania and spent his early years learning the game from his father who was a head pro. It has been his father who has insisted, against all contrary advice and throughout his life, that Jim kept with his natural swing – no matter how mad it might look. Dad was proved right. He attended the University of Arizona and turned professional in 1992. Furyk won at least one tournament each year on the PGA Tour between 1998 and 2003 – and bagged his first Major in 2003 when he won the US Open at Olympia Fields, tying the record for the lowest 72-hole score in U.S. Open history. Jim finished second on the US PGA 2006 money list – and is ably helped by his caddy Mike ‘Fluff’ Cowan who was Tiger Woods' caddy for his first two years as a professional.

 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.
