Has 12 wins and an amazing 18 runner up finishes to his his name in his US Tour career. Renowned for his own unique swing but is regarded as one of the most consistent players in America. Is also always at the top end of the driving accuracy charts.

Only Major success came in 2003 when he tied the record for the lowest 72-hole score in US Open history (272) to win at Olympia Fields, Illinois. Driving accuracy could be crucial at Carnoustie, and though Furyk just missed out at cruel Oakmont (2nd), it should keep him near the top of the leaderboard again.

Tied third at the AT&T National recently and looks capable.
