His Money Winnings Soared

Do you remember who the first professional golf player was to hit the 9 million dollar mark?

My guesses would have been Arnold Palmer or possibly Jack Nicklaus.

It was Tom Kite.

Tom has had a remarkable 19 PGA wins, 7 Senior PGA wins and 1 major, the 1992 US Open. Tom moreover shot 62 four times while playing on cheap golf clubs.

In the 1980s he played in 53 consecutive events with out missing the cut, which tied him for sixth overall with Vijay Singh in the PGA record books at the end of 2004.

Tom’s consistency and his fantastic brief game have been his biggest strengths.

How has Tom Kite been able to continually play winning the game of golf all through his career?
