  • Tom Watson is a professional golfer who played on the PGA Tour for 27 years, then moved to the Champions Tour in 1999. Watson won eight major championships, The Masters twice, the U.S. Open once and the British Open five times.

  • Career Highlights

    Watson turned heads in 1977, when he beat the untouchable Jack Nicklaus, at the British Open. Again in 1982, he beat Nicklaus in a showdown at the U.S. Open. He won eight major tournaments, with a total of 39 wins, while on the PGA Tour.http://www.golf.com/golf/tours_news/article/0,28136,1911539,00.html

  • Why is the 2009 British Open Important?

    In the late 70s and early 80s, while in his prime, Watson was the number one player for four years in a row, according to McCormack's World Golf Rankings. At nearly 60 years of age, a win at the 2009 British Open would make him the oldest major champion winner, by 11 years, in the history of golf.http://www.jocklife.net/news/golf/2009-british-open-tom-watson-leads-after-54-holes-vies-history-27593
