Man, you won’t believe the week I just had diving into this golfer named Boo Weekley. I’d heard the name, saw some highlights, figured it was time to see what this guy’s all about. So, I started digging.
First off, I hit up the usual spots, you know, the PGA TOUR Champions website, just to get the basics. Got his stats, some recent scores, the usual stuff you find on these sites. Nothing really jumped out, but it was a good starting point.
Next, I went over to Sports Mole. They had a bit more background on him, some biographical info. Learned he’s been around for a while, had some decent runs. It’s always interesting to see how these guys progressed through their careers.
Then, things got a little more interesting. I stumbled upon an article about the American Family Insurance Championship. Turns out, Boo birdied the 18th hole to tie for the lead in the first round! That caught my eye. Made a note to check out how he finished that tournament.
But here’s the kicker, and this is what really made me chuckle. I read that this guy, Boo Weekley, drove a U-Haul to a PGA Tour Champions event in Iowa! I mean, who does that? This guy’s got character, I’ll give him that. Definitely not your typical golfer story.
- Checked out ESPN to see if they had any more tidbits. Found some recent news, stats, and videos.
- Apparently, Boo doesn’t have full-time status on the PGA Tour anymore, but he’s still making appearances.
- He started playing on the PGA Tour Champions in August 2023, which makes sense.
Wrapping it all up
From what I gathered, Boo’s a bit of a journeyman, a real character. He’s not dominating the headlines, but he’s still out there competing. And that U-Haul story? That’s just gold. It tells you a lot about the kind of guy he is. One more thing I found is that he used to live in Milton, but he divorced and moved to nearby Jay, Florida. Guess he just wanted a change of scene.
So, that’s my deep dive into Boo Weekley. It wasn’t some crazy, life-altering experience, but it was a fun little rabbit hole to go down. You never know what you’ll find when you start digging into these players’ stories.
