FARMINGTON — Along with all the young up-and-coming aspiring PGA Tour golfers playing in this year’s Web.com Utah Championship will be one veteran golfer who has won the Masters, Utah’s own Mike Weir.

The 48-year-old Sandy resident, who does not have exempt status on the PGA Tour anymore, is playing this week at Oakridge Country Club with golfers half his age.

Weir is able to play in the tournament in the No. 8 Web.com eligibility category for PGA Tour members 48 or 49 years old. The Web.com allows up to three golfers in that age group who were regulars on the PGA Tour in each tournament.
