Brett Wetterich


Residence: Palm Beach Gardens, Florida
DOB: 08/09/1973
Brett Wetterich has had a great start to 2007. As of writing in April, he has already won well over $1m in prize money, finishing runner-up at the World Golf Championships at Doral (where our biog photo was taken), 8th in the Honda Classic and 10th at the EDS Byron Nelson Championship which he won last year. Brett turned pro in 1994, joining the main PGA Tour in 2000 but suffered injury and spent several years on the second-tier Nationwide Tour. He rejoined the PGA Tour in 2005 and in 2006 won the EDS Byron Nelson Championship beating Trevor Immelman by one stroke. In an emotional acceptance speech, he dedicated the victory to his brother Mark who was killed by a drunk driver in 2003; His brother’s initials – MTW – are stamped in bold on his bag as a memorial. The Byron Nelson win helped him finish 10th on the US money list – and secured a debut place in the 2006 US Ryder Cup team at the K Club in Ireland. Arguably an experience he might choose to forget as he lost 3&2 to Olazabal and Garcia in the Friday fourballs – and then 5&4 to David Howell in the singles.

 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.
