William Earl Casper Jr.
(June 24, 1931 – February 7, 2015) was an American
professional golfer
. He was one of the most prolific tournament winners on the
PGA Tour
from the mid-1950s to the mid-1970s.
In his youth, Casper started as a
caddie
and emerged from the junior golf hotbed of
San Diego
, where golf could be played year-round, to rank seventh all-time in career Tour wins with 51, across a 20-year period between 1956 and 1975. Fellow San Diegan great
Gene Littler
was a friend and rival from teenager to senior. Casper won three
major championships
, represented the United States on a then-record eight
Ryder Cup
teams, and holds the U.S. record for career Ryder Cup points won. After reaching age 50, Casper regularly played the
Senior PGA Tour
and was a winner there until 1989. In his later years, Casper successfully developed businesses in golf course design and management of golf facilities.
Casper served as Ryder Cup captain in 1979, was twice
PGA Player of the Year
(1966 and 1970), was twice leading money winner, and won five
Vardon Trophy
awards for the lowest seasonal scoring average on the Tour.
Respected for his extraordinary putting and short-game skills, Casper was a superior strategist who overcame his distance disadvantages against longer-hitting competitors such as
Arnold Palmer
and
Jack Nicklaus
with moxie, creative shot-making, and clever golf-course management abilities. Never a flashy gallery favorite, Casper developed his own self-contained style, relying on solid technique, determination, concentration, and perseverance.

He converted to the
LDS Church
in 1966. Casper was inducted to the
World Golf Hall of Fame
in 1978.
