Tom Lehman

Thomas Lehman is an American professional golfer.

He attended the University of Minnesota, graduating with a degree in Business/Accounting and turned professional in 1982. He was named PGA Tour Player of the Year in 1996.

The highlight of Lehman's career is his victory in the 1996 Open Championship. Given that he once spent a week at Number 1 in the Official World Golf Rankings, and as of August 2006 is 14th on the PGA Tour career money list. It is perhaps surprising that he has only won five times on the PGA Tour, but in addition to his Open win these wins have included the prestigious Tour Championship and Memorial Tournament, and he has won at least nineteen professional events in total.

Lehman was captain of the United States 2006 Ryder Cup team.
