FORECADDIE: Torrey’s new North star

Editor’s note: This story originally ran in the June 13 issue of Golfweek.

The Forecaddie believes in the adage that living well is the best revenge and was reminded of this saying during a recent visit with Tom Weiskopf.

Weiskopf, 73, was among those passed by Johnny Miller when Miller stormed his way to the 1973 U.S. Open crown at Oakmont with a final-round 63. But Weiskopf doesn’t wallow in what might have been. He’s too busy with projects such as a significant renovation at Torrey Pines Golf Course, the popular 36-hole municipal layout and site of Weiskopf’s first PGA Tour triumph, the 1968 Andy Williams-San Diego Open Invitational.
