Boo Weekley


Residence: Jay, Florida
DOB: 23/07/1973
Thomas ‘Boo’ Weekley - apparently nicknamed after Yogi Bear’s friend ‘Boo Boo’ - is one of the most colourful characters on tour, riding his driver like a bull when he teed off at the 2008 Ryder Cup being one on many instances of how he has brought a breath of fresh air to the PGA Tour. Boo has clearly decided to enjoy success while it lasts as he has truly had to earn his shot at the big time. A series of unsuccessful trips to Q School after turning professional in 1997 saw Boo having to spend several years on the Nationwide Tour before gaining his full PGA Tour Card in 2006 after finishing 7th on 2006 Nationwide Tour money list. Boo hit 68 of 72 greens in regulation at the Chattanooga Classic in 2006, breaking the Nationwide Tour record of 66 set by Chad Campbell at the 2001 Permian Basin Open. Boo used to have to wear waterproofs whenever he played golf due to cotton pants causing him to break out in a rash but is now sponsored by the outdoors apparel company Mossy Oak. His first victory came at the Verizon Heritage in April 2007 which saw him enter the top-50 of the rankings later in 2007. In 2008, Weekley successfully defended his title at the Verizon Heritage, and rose into the top-25 of the rankings. Boo has risen to 25th on the PGA Tour Money List after this victory and a series of top-10 finishes. Weekley shot to prominence at the 2008 Ryder Cup, with a succession of virtuoso displays of golf including an emphatic 4&2 win over Oliver Wilson in the Sunday Singles.

 2007  Barclays Scottish Open

12-15 July - The Barclays Scottish Open - Loch Lomond.

As the curtain raiser to the Open Championship the following week at Carnoustie, the Barclays Scottish Open attracted some of the biggest names in the world – Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els, Luke Donald and others all made the trip. It wasn’t, however, one of the big names who walked away with the £50,000 first prize – but a virtually unknown Frenchman - Gregory Havret - who holed a tricky 5-footer on the first extra hole to beat world no 3 Phil Mickelson in a play-off. The title also earned Havret the last remaining spot at the Open.
