TOURNAMENT RECAP: It was an emotional tournament for Jacksonville's Mark McCumber, and for the galleries, as he scored a final-round 69 for 15-under 273 to win by four strokes -- the lowest score at TPC Sawgrass. McCumber spotted a sign on No. 18 that read 'Jacksonville's Winner' and burst into tears in front of his friends and family in the gallery. "I was having trouble keeping my eyes clear so I could make that last putt. I'm just tickled to death with a win at home."
