The 19th Hole
Hat Trick: Saturday’s win marked Vaughan’s 3rd Tour Championship victory (2017, 2025, 2026); all 3 of his career wins in a major have come in the Tour’s “Club Championship”… 19: Vaughan became the 2nd golfer in tournament history to repeat, 19 years after Chris Moawad accomplished the feat… On the doorstep: Doug Vargas’s runner-up finish was his 3rd in his last 4 Tour Championship starts; he won in 2023… Futility at its worst: Tim Joe followed up his record disastrous round at the Griffith with another sad performance, going 30 strokes worse than the winner (gross scores)… 8: Ger-Bear’s latest win moves him into a tie with Patrick Bird for 8th on the all-time wins list… Tweet-tweet: The cherry on top for Vaughan was a win of the $11 birdie pool ($5 rolled over from the Griffith); 115-yard 5th.
