Jim Furyk Biography
Sidelights
Known for his idiosyncratic swing, golfer Jim Furyk turned professional in 1992. Over the years, he has become noted for his methodical approach to golf, which emphasizes straight driving and conservative shots. He worked his way up the ranks of golf quietly, but took the golf world by storm in 2003, when he beat the world's best golfers with ease at the U.S. Open and the Buick Open.

He also led the Wildcats to their first (and thus far only) NCAA title in 1992. That same year, Furyk turned professional and the rest, as they say, is history. He joined the PGA TOUR in 1994 and has won at least one tournament each year between 1998 and 2003.
His streak took a little bit of a hit in 2004 when Furyk missed three months due to surgery to repair cartilage damage in his wrist. He soon came back into top form finishing a career-high second o
