Fred Funk through the first seven holes Sunday. However, a birdie at the eighth by Funk began his comeback, and by the time the duo left the 12th green, they were tied. For most of the day, the wind was blowing slightly out of the northwest. When Funk and Doyle reached the 13th tee, it suddenly remained that way for the rest of the tournament. Funk missed short birdie putts on the 15th and 16th but then finished strong with birdies on the last two holes. He holed out a chip shot from 20 feet at No. 17 to take the lead and then, from a fairway bunker 155 yards on the 18th, he launched a 6-iron to seven feet and converted the putt for a two-stroke

Allen Doyle

Allen Doyle’s runner-up performance was his best effort on the Champions Tour since finishing second at the 2007 ACE Group Classic. He also registered his seventh top-10 finish, and third consecutive top-10, in the season-opening event,

Jim Thorpe

tying him with Raymond Floyd, Al Geiberger and Chi Chi Rodriguez for the most in tournament history. Tom Purtzer’s 10-under 62 on Friday proved to be the low round of the event and marked the third consecutive year a player had posted a score of double digits under par in a round. In 2007, Hale Irwin shot 10-under 62 in the second round, and in 2006, Loren Roberts’ 11-under 61 on Sunday set the 18-hole tournament record.

Winner

Despite a howling wind throughout the day, Jerry Pate used three consecutive birdies in the middle of the final round to win. Pate, four strokes behind leader Gil Morgan after the second round, breezed to his first victory in 39 starts and second career Champions Tour title. Pate’s final-round 70 matched the low score of the day. He sank a 4-foot putt at the par-5 eighth hole to move into a tie for the lead and then forged ahead for good by sinking an 8-footer for birdie on the following hole.

TOURNAMENT HISTORY

KEYS TO VICTORY

Year

Scott Hoch birdied three of his final four holes to pull away from a crowded leaderboard. Hoch, who trailed Jerry Pate by one stroke at the start of Sunday’s round, appeared out of contention after 10 holes when he was 1-over during that stretch. However, he played near-perfect golf the remainder of the afternoon, making successive birdies on Nos. 11 and 12 and additional birdies on Nos. 15, 17 and 18. His 38-½-foot birdie putt on No. 12 proved critical, and he regained a share of the lead at No. 17 by making a 22-footer for another birdie. After hitting a 5-iron approach to 22 feet at No. 18, Hoch twoputted for birdie and the win. Brad Bryant, playing four groups in front of Hoch, posted a 13-under 203 to briefly hold the lead late in the day. He would eventually tie for second with Bruce Lietzke.

TOURNAMENT HISTORIES

The ACE Group Classic NOTES Eleven of the previous 21 tournaments in Naples have been decided by either a playoff or one stroke. Also in 11 of those 21 events, a player has come from behind in the final round to win, including five of the last seven years. Six of 21 first-round leaders/co-leaders have gone on to win the Naples event, the last being Bobby Wadkins in 2007. The winner of the ACE Group Classic has come out of the final grouping in each of the last seven years. The last time it didn’t happen was in 2000 when Lanny Wadkins needed a final-round 64 to rally from three strokes back and eventually triumph in a playoff. Gene Littler is the oldest winner of this event, winning the 1989 tournament at 58 years, 7 months, 5 days. Lanny Wadkins is the youngest winner of The ACE Group Classic, winning at Pelican Marsh in 2000 at 50 years, 2 months, 8 days.

Allen Doyle’s five-stroke, wire-to-wire victory in 1999 made him the first player to win on both the Champions Tour and the Nationwide Tour. Bobby Wadkins’ 2007 victory, coupled with older brother Lanny’s win at Pelican Marsh in 2000, made the Wadkins’ the first set of brothers to claim titles BOBBY WADKINS in Naples. It’s happened two other times on the Champions Tour. Mike and Dave Hill both won the Fairfield Barnett Space Coast Classic (Dave in 1987, Mike in 1990) in Melbourne. Dave (1988) and Mike (1993) also claimed the PaineWebber Invitational in Charlotte.

Year

Bernhard Langer made a 12-foot birdie putt on the final hole to get into a playoff and then outlasted defending champion Jay Haas after seven extra holes for the win. Langer’s 3-foot birdie putt on the seventh playoff hole gave him his second Champions Tour win and ended Haas’ bid for a second straight victory in Newport Beach. The seven-hole playoff was the third longest in tournament history. The all-time nine-hole record was set in 1997 and matched four years later.

SECURITY PACIFIC SENIOR CLASSIC

KEYS TO VICTORY Denis Watson came from seven strokes back in the final round to post a playoff victory over Loren Roberts and Brad Bryant. Watson’s 9-iron from 152 yards on the third playoff hole settled just over a foot and a half from the hole, and he tapped in for the win. He had birdied the final hole of regulation to earn a spot in the playoff with Roberts, who chipped in for an eagle on his 54th hole. Bryant was eliminated after making par on the second playoff hole.

Langer’s birdie at the par-5 second hole came after an awkward chip from near the edge of a bunker. He chipped in for birdie at the par-5 sixth hole.

TOURNAMENT HISTORY

KEYS TO VICTORY

Year

Mark Wiebe cruised to a four-stroke, wire-to-wire victory over Vicente Fernandez in the first Toursanctioned event held in the Dominican Republic. Wiebe was the only player in the field to post three consecutive rounds in the 60s and finished at 14-under 202. His only challenger Sunday was Fernandez. After celebrating his 62nd birthday on Saturday, Fernandez reeled off five consecutive birdies on the front nine (Nos. 4-8) to briefly trail by only two shots. However, Wiebe countered with a 10-foot eagle putt at the par-5 sixth hole and a 5-foot birdie at the par-3 seventh. Wiebe’s only hiccup Sunday came with a double-bogey 7 at the par-5 15th, where he struggled to reach the green and then three-putted from 50 feet. His 8-foot birdie putt at No. 17 moved the margin back to four.

Mark Wiebe first appeared to have the tournament in hand, sailing along with a three-shot lead and four holes to play after making birdie at the par-4 14th. But the wheels fell off for Wiebe and he eventually wound up playing his final four holes in 6-over to tie for fifth. After Wiebe’s misfortune, it appeared as if Tom Watson was in control but he hit a 7-iron approach shot from 157 yards into the water just right of the 18th green. Watson managed to get up and down to finish at 9-under, holing what would turn out to be a clutch 5-foot putt for a bogey at the final hole. Scott Hoch, playing behind Watson in the final grouping, then had a chance to win the tournament outright or send it to a playoff with a par. His approach shot on 18 missed the green. After he chipped four feet past the hole, he missed the par putt, handing the tournament to Watson.

Tom Watson’s win at the Outback Steakhouse Pro-Am made him the first player in tournament history to successfully defend a title. Watson’s 11th career Champions Tour title was also his 50th win in a TOUR-sanctioned event. He joined Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Hale Irwin and Lee Trevino as the only players to have at least 10 wins on the Champions Tour, 20 victories on the PGA TOUR and a combined 50 titles on both Tours.

Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf KEYS TO VICTORY

Andy North and Tom Watson became the ninth team to go wire to wire in this event. North also did so in 2000 and 2001 with Jim Colbert as his partner. Gary Koch and Roger Maltbie claimed their second Raphael Division title (also won in 2003), with a come-from-behind victory over first-round leaders Bob Charles and Stewart Ginn. Koch and Maltbie, who work as golf analysts for NBC Sports, began the day eight strokes behind Charles and Ginn but closed with a 12-under-par 60 to defeat Charles and Ginn by a stroke. The 12-under-par 60 by Gary Koch and Roger Maltbie set a new Raphael Division scoring mark, breaking the old record of 61 set in 2002 by Bill Rogers and Bruce Lietzke and later matched by Andy North and Tom Watson in 2006 and 2007. Doug Ford is the only player to have played in every Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf since its first year in 1978. Last year marked Ford’s 31st consecutive appearance in the event. He teamed with Billy Maxwell in the Demaret Division competition. Ford won 19 PGA TOUR events, including the 1955 PGA Championship and 1957 Masters.

NOTES

TOURNAMENT HISTORY

Section

Andy North and Tom Watson may have moved to a new division in 2008, but the results were the same. After three successive victories in the Raphael Division, North and Watson moved to the Legends Division and held off a late charge from Craig Stadler/Jeff Sluman for a one-stroke win.

Jay Haas closed with a 4-over-par 74 in the final round to hold off Bernhard Langer by a shot. Langer held a one-stroke lead after 54 holes but started the final round with a double bogey, was 4-over for the day after his first four holes and never recovered. Haas had just one birdie in his final round (par-4, No. 5). He came to the 18th tee nursing a one-stroke lead and avenged some demons by hitting a perfect tee shot into the middle of the fairway on the 469-yard finishing hole. In the 1995 Ryder Cup, Haas lost the clinching singles match for the United States on the 18th hole after hitting an errant tee shot. This time, he hit the final green in regulation, and a 2-foot par putt was all he needed to claim the title.

Bernhard Langer

Notes Jay Haas’ four-round score of 7-over-par 287 was the highest 72-hole total in relation to par by a winner in Senior PGA Championship history. The previous high was 2-over by Sam Snead in 1970. Haas’ total was also the second-highest winning score in Champions Tour history. Arnold Palmer won the 1981 U.S. Senior Open at Oakland Hills in a playoff after he, Bob Stone and Billy Casper completed 72 holes with 9-over 289 scores. Jay Haas became the 13th different player to win multiple Senior PGA Championship titles.

Year

Six of the last seven winners of the Senior PGA Championship have come from behind on the final day for victory. The East Course at Oak Hill Country Club played to a stroke average of 76.0 for the championship, the highest scoring average in relation to par on the Champions Tour since the 1998 U.S. Senior Open at the par-71 Riviera Country Club near Los Angeles (77.654). World Golf Hall of Famer Greg Norman made his first appearance on the Champions Tour since the 2005 U.S. Senior Open and tied for sixth. Bruce Vaughan carded his first hole-in-one on the Champions Tour when he aced the 164-yard sixth hole in the third round with a 7-iron.

ALLIANZ CHAMPIONSHIP

KEYS TO VICTORY Jay Haas knew he had to be aggressive if he were to defend his title. Trailing second-round leader Nick Price by three strokes with nine holes remaining, Haas’ aggressiveness paid off late in the round when he made consecutive birdies on Nos. 14-16, which gave him the lead. After pars on his final two holes, Haas stood by as his pursuers were unable to close the gap and he successfully defended his title with a one-stroke win over Andy Bean and two over Price.

THE NORTHVILLE INVITATIONAL

1988

KEYS TO VICTORY Loren Roberts secured his first victory of 2008 by holing a 29-foot, double-breaking birdie putt on the par-5 17th Sunday. The birdie put him in front by two strokes and gave him the cushion he needed to preserve the win. Despite making a bogey at the final hole, Roberts finished one stroke ahead of hardcharging Nick Price and Lonnie Nielsen, the event’s defending champion. Price made a strong bid, matching the tournament’s low round with a 6-under 65 Sunday. Nielsen made a 14-foot birdie putt on No. 17 to get within one of the lead, then left a 26-foot birdie putt short on No. 18. Roberts was in a seven-way tie for the lead after three holes, but David Eger jumped in front after a birdie at No. 5. Roberts eventually tied Eger with a short birdie putt at No. 11 and then took the lead for good with a 4-foot birdie putt on the par-5 12th, a hole Eger bogeyed.

DICK’S SPORTING GOODS OPEN

KEYS TO VICTORY Eduardo Romero appeared in control with five holes to play, holding a two-stroke lead. However, his lead dwindled to just one when he missed a 4-foot par putt at No. 14. He remained one up on Joey Sindelar after each birdied No. 16 and was two better than Fulton Allem heading to No. 17. At the par-3 17th, Sindelar saw his par putt lip out, and Allem missed a birdie try. But Romero missed a 4-footer for par leaving the door open. However, Sindelar’s drive went right at No. 18, and his second shot carried into a corporate tent area ending his chances. Allem, meanwhile, missed a lengthy birdie putt for a tie, leaving Romero with a two-putt for the win.

R.W. Eaks had been using a much heavier putter throughout the 2008 season, but the Fisher Golf putters that arrived prior to the opening round were just what he needed. Eaks entered the final round with a three-stroke advantage and doubled that when he birdied No. 2 and eagled No. 3. However, Gene Jones wouldn’t go away. He kept making birdies, and by the time he made his sixth of the day at No. 14, he had pulled to within two shots of Eaks’ lead. It looked as if Jones was going to get closer when Eaks hit a wedge over the green and into deep rough at No. 15. But Eaks holed the chip for a birdie, and Jones faded after making bogey and double bogey on his next two holes.

Bruce Vaughan sank a 20-foot birdie on the first extra hole to defeat John Cook for his first career Champions Tour victory. Cook appeared in control, opening up a three-stroke margin after 10 holes. However, a double bogey at No. 11 and a bogey at No. 12 sliced his lead. After Eduardo Romero and Bernhard Langer stumbled with bogeys late in the round, Cook was left with a one-stroke margin over Vaughan going to No. 18. Needing to make a 15-foot par putt to secure the win, Cook missed. On the first playoff hole, Vaughan holed his birdie putt, while Cook missed from 12 feet.

NOTES With his victory, Bruce Vaughan became the 21st player in Champions Tour history to make his first win a major championship. The only other player to do it at the Senior British Open was Pete Oakley in 2004. The victory also secured Bruce Vaughan a berth in the 2009 British Open at Turnberry. The John Cook-Bruce Vaughan playoff was the eighth in tournament history and the fourth since it became an official event in 2003. Eduardo Romero’s third-place finish marked the fifth time he has posted a top-10 performance in this event since it became official in 2003. Four of those finishes have been in the top five. After just making the cut on the number (10-over-par) after the second round, Gary Koch enjoyed a successful weekend. Koch shot a 1-under-par 70 Saturday but followed that with the low round of the day GARY KOCH Sunday, a 5-under-par 66, which helped him to a tie for 13th. He had started the weekend tied for 71st. Ken Green tied for 54th in his Champions Tour debut.

TOURNAMENT HISTORIES

Funk bogeyed No. 14, Romero led by four strokes with four holes to go. He made four consecutive pars the rest of the way to notch his second title of the 2008 season (Dick’s Sporting Goods Open).

NOTES Eduardo Romero’s U.S. Senior Open win was the first by an Argentinean since Roberto De Vicenzo claimed the inaugural championship in 1980 at Winged Foot Golf Club. Eduardo Romero also became the fifth international winner of the U.S. Senior Open and the first international champion since Australia’s Graham Marsh won in 1997 at Olympia Fields Country Club near Chicago. Eduardo Romero’s four-stroke victory was the largest in a U.S. Senior Open since 1995 when Tom Weiskopf won by four strokes over Jack Nicklaus at Congressional Country Club. The cumulative scoring average for the week was 74.589 at the par-70 Broadmoor, the highest in relation to par since the 2003 U.S. Senior Open at Inverness near Toledo. At 7,254 yards, The Broadmoor’s East Course played as the longest venue in U.S. Senior Open history.

Eduardo Romero reacts to fans on his way to victory in the U.S. Senior Open.

Fred Funk redeemed himself in Oregon, claiming his first major championship. After bogeying the ninth hole Friday, Funk proceeded to play the next 42 holes without a bogey or worse, in the process making 17 birdies and 25 pars. Funk’s lead was as much as six strokes early on the back nine, and by the time he played the last three holes in Sunday’s final round in 3-over par, it didn’t matter. Jay Haas started the final round just one stroke back of Funk and was his closest pursuer. However, Haas fell three strokes behind Funk after making bogey at the par-3 third hole and then dropped out of contention after making a double bogey at No. 10, allowing Funk to cruise to a three-shot victory.

THE FIRST TEE OPEN AT PEBBLE BEACH PRESENTED BY WAL-MART

KEYS TO VICTORY

2004

Jeff Sluman sank two par-saving putts that led to a five-stroke triumph over Fuzzy Zoeller and Craig Stadler. Fred Funk, playing ahead of Sluman, briefly tied for the lead after a birdie at the fifth hole. However, Sluman birdied the same hole to move into the lead for good. After making birdie at No. 8 to take a two-stroke lead over Funk, Sluman holed a 17-foot par putt at No. 9 and then made a difficult 12-foot, right-to-left-breaking putt for par at No. 11. Following his bogey on the 12th, Funk faded from contention. Later, on No. 15, Sluman sank a 16-foot birdie putt to

TOURNAMENT HISTORY

KEYS TO VICTORY

Year

R.W. Eaks and Tom Jenkins began the final round four strokes clear of the rest of the field. The two remained tied for the lead after five holes, but a Jenkins double bogey at the par-4 sixth opened the door for Eaks, who stretched his lead to three strokes at No. 11 when Jenkins three-putted from 35 feet. His margin grew to four after Jenkins sailed his approach shot at No. 12 over the putting surface. Eaks gave Jenkins some room for hope with a three-putt bogey at No. 13, his only blemish of the tournament. However, at the par-5 14th, Eaks stayed aggressive and hit the green in two. A two-putt birdie from 50 feet was the clincher for Eaks.

SENIOR TOURNAMENT PLAYERS CHAMPIONSHIP

KEYS TO VICTORY Down four strokes with 14 holes to play, D.A. Weibring rallied to take the lead midway through the final round and used two par saves late to hold on for the win. Nick Price appeared in control early until he squandered his four-stroke advantage and dropped out of the lead with a bogey at No. 10. This temporarily opened the door for Jay Haas and Ben Crenshaw, who each owned a share of the top spot on the back nine. Crenshaw, playing two holes ahead of the final grouping, had another golden opportunity to tie Weibring for the lead but he failed to convert a 4-foot birdie putt at No. 17. Trailing by one stroke, Price’s approach at the par-4 17th stopped three feet above the hole, while Weibring’s shot went into the back rough. After a chip to 10 feet, Weibring drained a par-saving putt and then watched Price miss his downhill putt to tie.

TOURNAMENT HISTORY

KEYS TO VICTORY

THE DOMINION SENIORS

John Cook had posted 14 top-10 finishes during the year but he hadn’t won. Playing with a stomach ailment during the final round, Cook bogeyed the first hole at Oak Hills on Sunday then buckled down and birdied three of the next four holes to go on to successfully defend his title. He took the lead for good with a 25-foot birdie putt on the par-5 10th. When Cook was midway through his front nine, Jay Haas temporarily tied him with a 9-foot eagle putt at No. 10. However, Haas’ bid for a fourth career title at Oak Hills ended when he bogeyed the 13th hole after pulling a 4-iron shot into the water. Cook saved pars on Nos. 11-13 after missing the greens and then pulled away with a 2-putt birdie from 30 feet on the 512-yard 15th and an 8-foot birdie at the 17th.

TOURNAMENT HISTORIES

AT&T Championship Notes John Cook became the third player in AT&T Championship history to successfully defend a title and first since the event moved to Oak Hills in 2002. Jim Albus won back-to-back event at The Dominion in 1995-96, and Lee Trevino claimed consecutive titles at the same venue in 1991-92. Keith Fergus’ runner-up performance at Oak Hills was his best on the Champions Tour since winning the 2007 Ginn Championship. John Cook’s victory marked the sixth consecutive year the event has been won by a Champions Tour rookie, and it’s happened 13 times in 24 years at this tournament. Oak Hills played to a stroke average of 70.419, the easiest it’s ever played for this event.

TOURNAMENT HISTORY

Notes One year after winning with son Josh, Larry Nelson teamed with son Drew to successfully defend the DelWebb Father/Son Challenge title. Not only did Larry win his third overall Father/Son title, he also became the first dad to win titles with different sons in consecutive years. Larry and Drew Nelson also won this event in 2004. Raymond Floyd won three straight years (1995-97) with Raymond Jr. and then won back-to-back Father/Son events (2000-01) with son Robert. Bernhard Langer won back-to-back titles (2005-06) with son Stefan. Nick Faldo and his son Matthew made a respectable showing in their tournament debut. The six-time major champion’s only competitive golf in in 2008 prior to this tournament was a missed cut at the UBS Hong Kong Open two weeks earlier. Matthew, a student at the University of West of England in Bristol, only plays casual golf. The duo combined to shoot 16-under 128 in the 36-hole score scramble format to tie for seventh. After winning the PGA TOUR’s Children’s Miracle Network Classic in November, Davis Love III teamed with son Dru to record their best career finish in this event. Playing in their third Del Webb Father/Son Challenge, the Loves finished second with a 19-under-par 125 score. In 2006, Team Love was fourth and in their debut in 2005, they tied for ninth at ChampionsGate.
