As much as I love Phil Mickelson, and wanted him to win, I love that Vaughn Taylor won, 1st win in 11 years, didn't even have his tour card but NOW he will be going to Masters near his home, 20 min. from Augusta, and winnings of $1,244,000.... Phil will win next week!

He appeared to be very humble and gracious in this win. I too wanted Phil but this person needed it for his career continuing on the tour.

Question:

With the win Mr Taylor wins a two year exemption on the PGA Tour.

Is that the balance of 2016 and 2017

or

The balance of 2016, 2017 and 2018?

Same here. Love Phil but glad to see an underdog win. Good for the game!

Yes! Absolutely agree with everyone's consensus! What a great story! What an outpouring of emotions from his wife. I'm sure there have been some lean years financially.

Also, I would like to know the answer to the question posted above about when does the 2 yr. tour card begin/end!

Vaughn is exempt throug February of 2018

When the camera was on Phil waiting to make the potential tying putt there was the outline of him with the blue pacific behind and the waves crashing in. What a backdrop and what concentration the pros have. I might be thinking about the putt, but my brain would be mostly sightseeing.

I love to play Pebble Beach!
