Editor's Note: Joe Ogilvie won his first PGA TOUR title at the U.S. Bank Championship on Sunday. Here are some of the e-mails PGATOUR.com received congratulating Ogilvie, who will head to Hawaii for the season-opening Mercedes-Benz Championship in 2008.

Congratulations on your first PGA TOUR win from an old LCC acquaintance. YOU GUYS ARE GOOD! See you at Cog Hill for the FedExCup. Bryan

YEA!! Congratulations, Champ. We are very happy for you and Colleen. Great post-win interview! Fantastic "first steps" for both you and baby Patrick. More to come! Mike & Barb

I was at a Schwab Outing that you did last summer in DC. Glad for you (and the points help me in the FedExCup fantasy league at TPC Avenel). Ben

Way to go, Joey! I knew that your time would come soon. You have all your priorities in place and have worked hard since you were a youngster. Keep up the hard work. It has been a pleasure following your career. You have made Lancaster, Ohio proud! Mike

Well Done! Congratulations from everyone in the Duke Basketball program! We were all cheering you on back here in Durham. See you soon! Mike

You finished like a champion because you are a champion. Loved around at OCC. Congrats. Druck

Way to go, Joe! I've been pulling for you all along the way. I knew you were going to do it. Now go get some more wins. Paul

Congrats, Joey. We've been following you since you played here at LCC. Delighted you have broken the ice. Many more now. Don & Jo

I'm not sure you will ever be able to read all the e-mails, but wanted to say congrats on your first win. We have been following your career since back on the Nationwide Tour rooting for our "hometown guy." You have certainly made Lancaster proud today! Go Gales. Jen

We've followed your career since the Tornado Tour days, and we've always known what a great player you truly are. This week you more than proved it. Best wishes for many more wins! Your long time fans and supporters, Ken & Peg

I followed you on Friday and Sunday at Brown Deer. Good, steady play. Loved the eagle coming home on Sunday. Congratulations on your first PGA TOUR win. Hope to see you back in Milwaukee for many years to come.

Congrats, Dude! Great job and great win. Fellow Duke alum here who has enjoyed following your career. Well deserved win after all of the hard work. Keep it going. You've got the talent to win more of these things. Let's go Duke! Brian

I am thrilled for you and your family. Your character is first class, very humble. Congratulations on your first big win. Get some sleep and let it sink in. You are a great champion. Christof

I've been a fan of yours for the last 7 years. Watched you go from struggling to stay on tour to a champion. Hopefully, many more to come. Zac

Congratulations on your first win on the PGA TOUR. Lots of guys here were calling each other yesterday during your round to make sure everyone was watching. Way to grind it out and keep battling. What a shot on 16. WOW! Way to make us proud. Best of luck. Ryan

I would have expected nothing less from a DUKE man. Way to go! Wade

It's been a few years since you played in the Dakota Dunes Open, Sioux City, Iowa. However, all the good old boys at Bill's Bar were thrilled with your victory Sunday. The eagle on No. 16 brought the place to its feet. Murph

Congrats on your victory. The Woodward Team was behind you 100 percent. Your analogy about your baby's first step and your first steps was right on. I still can't believe I played with a PGA TOUR champ. AWESOME! Tony

I met you at the Shell Houston Open at the original tournament course on No. 3 in 2005. I was standing next to the tee box for two days in a row, and you commented, "Hey you were here yesterday." I've been a fan ever since. You never know when just a little thing you say may stick with someone. Anyway, I was glad to see you pull through yesterday. What an eagle! Congratulations, and I hope you win many more. Charles

Congratz, Joe! Your success is another reason for us aspiring pros to keep working hard at it but also to find a way to have fun doing it. Continued luck and success! Gus
