26 Year Old Webb Simpson Wins 2012 U.S. Open

Webb Simpson shot a final-round 2-under 68, then had to wait out Jim Furyk and Graeme McDowell before securing his first U.S. Open title with a 1-over 281 at The Olympic Club on Sunday evening.

So Webb Simpson becomes the fifth U.S. Open winner at Olympic to come from behind and beat out the better known 54-hiole leaders. Future “Jeopardy!” answer: What do Ben Hogan in 1955, Arnold Palmer in 1966, Tom Watson in 1987, Payne Stewart in 1998 and Jim Furyk and Graeme McDowell in 2012 have in common?
