Karriere
Watsons Golfkarriere begann 1971, nachdem er an der Stanford University seinen Abschluss in Psychologie gemacht hatte. Mit der Saison 1974 begann dann seine erfolgreichste Zeit auf der PGA Tour, die bis 1984 anhielt. Ab den späten 1980er Jahren konnte Watson wegen anhaltender Putt-Probleme seine brillante Form nicht mehr halten. Etwa 10 Jahre später jedoch, im fortgeschrittenen Alter von 47 beziehungsweise 49 Jahren gewann er noch je ein Turnier gegen durchwegs deutlich jüngere Konkurrenz.
Beim Ryder Cup stand Tom Watson viermal (3 Siege, 1 Remis) im Team der USA. 1993 war er Kapitän der siegreichen Mannschaft.
Seit 1999 darf Watson bei den Senioren auf der Champions Tour spielen und hat dort bislang fünf Major Titel errungen.
Unvergessen bleiben seine hochklassigen Duelle mit Jack Nicklaus bei der Open Championship 1977 und den US Open 1982. Bei beiden Turnieren schnappte er seinem noch berühmteren Kollegen jeweils im letzten Augenblick den Titel.
Ein besonders emotionaler Tag war bei den US Open 2003, als Watson in Begleitung seines langjährigen Caddies Bruce Edwards eine sensationelle Eröffnungsrunde von 65 Schlägen gelang und alle wussten, dass es der Abschied des unheilbar an ALS erkrankten Edwards sein würde. Der Caddy starb im Jahr darauf im Alter von 49.
Am 19. Juli 2009, als fast 60-jähriger, führte Watson bei der Open Championship ein Loch vor Schluss mit einem Schlag Vorsprung. Er verschob jedoch den siegbringenden Putt am letzten Loch und verlor im anschließenden Stechen gegen seinen 24 Jahre jüngeren Landsmann Stewart Cink.
Tom Watson lebt derzeit mit seiner Frau, 2 Kindern und 3 Stiefkindern in Stillwell, Kansas.
