Teeing Off

Stricker wins!

August

Steve Stricker just wrapped up his first PGA Tour win in over six years in fantastic fashion. Just needing a two-putt, he drained an eight-footer for birdie to finish at 16-under and two shots clear of runner-up K.J. Choi.

Stricker fell behind Choi after the South Korean birdied the 15th hole, but he responded in a big way by birdieing the final three holes to pick up the victory. Afterwards, it was a great showing of sportsmanship as the two embraced.

Stricker was especially emotional as he was interviewed just off the 18th green. Considered washed up by many, he’s now playing the best golf of his life and has emerged as one of the best players in the world.
