$936,000 for winning the Phoenix Open. Good work if you can get it. J.B.Holmes fresh from 6 rounds in the 60’s at the Q school where he walked away with the medal, the Phoenix Open seems like a walk in the park.

He won going away which is nice to see, winning by seven strokes. The guy can play.

The money - crazy! One tenth place finish and a win and J.B. Holmes becomes the fastest PGA player to win $1 million. It took Retief Goosen five tournaments to reach $1 million in 2001.

By the way, Tiger wins Dubai. Looked like a Phoenix golf course to me. This time it was Els that gagged in sudden death. The legend grows.
