- Texan Rich Beem looks back with enormous pride on his major victory at the PGA Championship in 2002, which saw him getter the better of the likes of Tiger Woods in his prime at Hazeltine National
He is great at talking and delivering a message simply and succinctly.
One of the great one major wonders in golfing history. He hasn't won a tournament since.
I remember watching this. So happy he won. Winning 1 is a massive achievement.
Love Beemer. Doesn't take himself too seriously, loves his state and country, tells it like it is and is a great commentator, especially when teamed with Ewan Murray. Be a great guy to play 18 holes with and have a few beers and a burger afterwards.
That win at castle pines 2 weeks before the PGA put him on such a high before it, not because he won, but the manner of the match and the pressure with Lowery coming back down the stretch and Rich holding on despite shooting an almost course record 19 points (stapleford) gave great preparation for the PGA which he deserved to win.
Lowery was making everything he looked at during the international. Crazy that Beem still won .
Brilliant honest interview
Probably a very down to earth dude .
I was there that weekend. Round 3 Saturday I almost got hit by Tigers ball on the 18th.
Bud, sweat, and tees is a classic
He was a cool guy in high school. He's holding a golf club in one of his yearbook pics.
I think it would be something to play golf with Beemer.
an extraordinary man for sure... and one hell of a story.
He still plays hazeltine quite often, his son lives with a member as he is going to college at the university of Minnesota.
Beemer ‘Champion Golfer’ Awesome
American College level golf and World Amateur championship and NCAA level is very very high. He knew the level of competition. He just needed to work hard for few years...
I was there. I remember waiting for his group on the 11th green saw his ball landed was like what the crap!?
He weighed more than 158 lbs.
LinksHopping Golfer Based on my expert analysis, he was closer to 180-185.
I was thinking that! I weigh 180 lbs and he looks heavier than me.
His wife hands out sleeping meds and she’s a pharmacist? Beem probably shouldn’t have mentioned that. What else did she give him back then?
No shorty baker here.
I just heard him say, live on Sky TV, he's broken his clubs on the course. Wow, not cool. I'd remove him immediately from the course. Maybe it's his "little big man" disease, or maybe he was abused as a child. Either way, there is no place on a golf course for that, let alone suggest it's OK.
Sad, sad little man.
"pretty sure I can sell that one in Monty for a pretty dime" yeah with that kind of attitude, it makes sense that you're a one hit wonder.
He had an amazing career for a guy that was selling phones for a living a few years before his major win. And more to the point, he’s right.
2002 was a great year for him...
