Webb SIMPSON fact file

Country:  USA

Date of Birth:  08/08/1985

Height:  6ft 2in

Since turning professional just four years ago, Webb Simpson has taken the world rankings by storm with two tournament victories under his belt on the PGA Tour. A three-time All-American and the ACC Player of the Year in 2008, Simpson has found the transition into the pro tour a relatively straightforward one. Simpson jostled with Luke Donald for first place on the 2011 PGA Tour money list but was beaten into second place when Donald won the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals Classic. However, Simpson’s disappointment was tempered with the news of qualification for the 2011 Presidents Cup team for the first time in his career. After a quiet start to the 2012 PGA tour season Webb proved he had the game for the biggest stage by landing the US Open title at the brutally tough Olympic Club course. If you'd like to take a look at Webb Simpson's 'what's in the bag?', the 27-year-old endorses Titleist golf equipment and golf balls on tour.
