Later that year, he added a second victory at the USF&G Classic, finishing with a tournament-record 26-under-par total.

He spent 40 weeks in the top 10 of the Official World Golf Rankings between 1988 and 1989. Beck's peak years included additional wins at the 1990 Buick Open and the 1992 Freeport-McMoRan Classic, along with 18 runner-up finishes that highlighted his contention in high-stakes events. A career highlight occurred in 1991 at the Las Vegas Invitational, where he shot a record-tying 59 in the third round—the second such score in history—en route to a second-place finish. By the mid-1990s, Beck entered a severe slump, missing 46 consecutive cuts from 1997 to 1998, which eroded his confidence and led to financial difficulties supporting his family of six children.

Over his career in the event, he made the cut at least eight times, with his 1989 runner-up performance standing as his peak achievement and contributing notably to his event-specific earnings. The , often regarded as golf's unofficial fifth major due to its elite field and $1.35 million purse in 1989, suited Beck's game on the Pete Dye-designed , where his affinity for such layouts was evident in his strong contention.

Personal life and later career

Family and residences

Chip Beck married Karen Thompson in June 1989, shortly after meeting her at the AT&T Golf Tournament in Endicott, New York, where she was working in the hospitality industry connected to golf events. The couple, who share a strong Catholic faith, have raised six children together: Charles, Elizabeth, Mary Catherine, Anne Marie, John, and Carl Henry. Beck's prior marriage in 1979 had ended in divorce amid the demands of professional golf life. The family faced significant challenges during Beck's prolonged career slump in the late 1990s and early 2000s, when he endured 46 consecutive missed cuts, leading to financial hardships exacerbated by supporting their growing family of six children, whom he later described as "six expensive kids." Karen Beck provided crucial emotional support, drawing on their shared religious beliefs to help him navigate the difficulties, including prayers for a turnaround and family stability. This familial encouragement influenced Beck's decision to supplement his income through sales during that period. Beck and his family have long been based in the Chicago area, initially settling in Lincoln Park before moving to Highland Park with the birth of their first child, and eventually establishing a longtime residence in the affluent suburb of Lake Forest, Illinois. During the height of his slump around 2007, they sold their Lake Forest home and relocated to a rented house in the same region to manage expenses while raising four of the children at the time. In later years, following his transition to the Champions Tour and a role at Grey Oaks Country Club, the Becks began splitting time between Illinois and the Naples, Florida, area, where they maintain a part-time residence near Ave Maria University.

Post-competitive activities

After retiring from the Champions Tour in 2015, Chip Beck transitioned into the role of ambassador at Grey Oaks Country Club in , where he engages with members and promotes the club's initiatives. In this capacity, he supports junior development by participating in events for educational programs, such as the Golf Center's youth initiatives. Beck entered the insurance sales field in the early 2000s amid a prolonged career slump on the , joining National Life of Vermont as a part-time agent and utilizing his professional connections to cultivate clients. He maintained this business alongside his competitive schedule until the mid-2000s, later resuming it on a flexible basis after his full-time playing days. Following his retirement, Beck established an online coaching platform at chipbeck59.com, providing personalized video analysis for swing mechanics and putting techniques informed by his experience, including his record-setting 59. The site enables remote lessons for golfers of varying skill levels, emphasizing practical tips derived from his professional career. Beck has contributed to golf media through occasional analyst roles, notably appearing on a 2025 Ryder Cup preview to discuss the European team's formidable lineup and overall strength. He also joined post-event breakdowns of the competition, offering insights from his three-time Ryder Cup participation. Beck's enduring impact is recognized through inductions into the Carolinas Golf Hall of Fame in 2008 and the Illinois Golf Hall of Fame in 2009, honoring his contributions to the . He continues to serve on the for the Western Golf Association, supporting scholarships and youth development programs like the Chick Evans Scholarship Fund.
