Tom Weiskopf is a brilliant, lovable, crusty curmudgeon who tortured himself for almost 40 years by getting firmly in his own way, on and off the course. With the best swing of his generation and perhaps the worst playing temperament of any generation, Weiskopf was always fascinating to watch, particularly when he would play himself into or near the lead. When things could get touchy, Tom could go crazy. He was the first in a long line of fine players to wear the "next Nicklaus" label—and fail to live up to it. No one was satisfied with Weiskopf's career totals of 16 PGA Tour wins, including one major championship, because he should have won 30 times with 5 majors. Easily.

As one of the most notable golf course architects in the U.S., Tom Weiskopf brings more than 20 years of golf architecture experience to Adam’s Mountain Country Club. Born in Massillon, Ohio, and an alumnus of Ohio State University, Weiskopf turned professional in 1964. The years following brought him 15 U.S. tour tournament wins, five foreign titles, and five Senior Tour victories including The Chrysler Cup, The Franklin Quest Championship, USGA Senior Open, SBC Dominion Seniors Championship and The Pittsburgh Senior Classic in 1996. After being named Golf Magazine’s 1973 “Player of the Year”, he became a golf analyst for CBS Sports in 1983 and pursued a consulting career in golf course design a year later. In 1994, Weiskopf started his own golf course design firm. More than 15 Weiskopf designs have been ranked among the top courses worldwide.

PGA tour highlights include winning twice at the Canadian Open (in 1973 and 1975) as well as the British Open in 1973. A successful Senior Tour career saw wins at the Chrysler Cup in 1993 and the USGA Senior Open in 1995. Far before the Senior Tour wins Tom became involved in golf course design in the mid-eighties. This led to a partnership with course architect Jay Morrish in 1983 as well as starting his own golf course design firm in 1994.
