    I idolized Tom as a youngster. He was so cool and what a swing!

    As a very tall golfer I always had Tom as a hero. I was lucky to follow him at Riviera CC during an LA open in which I verbally wished him good luck on the upcoming Sr's tour. On the first hole the par 5 Tom pushed his drive into the right trees. I thought he had no shot but standing behind him I watched him hit a towering 7 iron up over the trees an onto the green to make birdie. Those were the days of Tommy Amour irons and Magregor woods

      The PGA HOF has criteria for entry….i believe it’s 20 wins and 1 major.
      He doesn’t qualify. Still, he was the Story in his golf career. He also played against the best era of winners headed by The best. That’s the way it goes and is life.
      Jack, Johnny, Lee, Watson,Player, Green, Palmer at the end of his greatness and Seve , the new breed.
      Take Phil, Vijay and Duval… if Tiger wasn’t there , but it’s the way it goes. We enjoyed Weiskoff… and hopefully he knew it .

    RIP Tom Weiskopf (November 9, 1942 - August 20, 2022)

    Most of the greats had great bonds with their fathers. Notice that Weiskopf had a difficult relationship with his father, while Jack Nicklaus had a great bond with his. Greg Norman's father never approved of Greg pursuing golf. There is a fine line between the really great ones and the pretty good ones, or even regular great ones. Who knows what factors play a role at the moment of impact in the biggest shots of one's life, but it couldn't have helped Weiskopf or Norman in the big moments.

    One of my favorite golfers in the 1970's. I am so happy he has been so successful with course design.

    Announcer to Tw @ The Masters - Tom, what is Nicklaus thinking? Tw - " If I knew that I would have won this tournament. "

    One of my favorites. He deserves the good life he appears to have now. Good for him.

    What matter more- being in GHOF or having most serious golfers of any age know who you were and know your game was admired by the best?

    Tom Weiskopf hit the ball so well he couldn’t accept that he was being beaten by guys that didn’t hit it as well as him, but they scored well because of a good short game. Just didn’t have the mental discipline that Nicklaus had.

    I love your swing Tommy, why don't the young players swing like you wouldn't they keep the ball in play more often . . ha,ha.

    Tom Weiskopf will be using a 2 iron, Rory McIlroy wil be using a lob wedge.

    Working in this place was the worst thing that could happen to me, renting a house with them was the most difficult, they are expensive, I only worked to pay the rent, I had no money left to eat, I tried to talk to the human resources people, they didn't care, they didn't They helped, I don't like how they treat the employees

  • @marcelacastaneda1337

    Los empleados son basura para esta empresa, la cafeteria de los empleados parece una carcel, el pollo de la cafeteria siempre esta crudo, la casa de los empleados es lo peor, 10 personas viven en un departamento para 5 personas, los recursos humanos no No les importa, no ayudan si tienes problemas con la casa, solo trabajas para pagar la renta, es lo peor que me puede pasar, no trabajes para este lugar.
