Australian Geoff Ogilvy received many emails from fans who wanted to congratulate him on his win at the Mercedes-Benz Championship.

Awesome, Geoff. Proud day for all Australians! Well done, mate. Matthew

Congratulations on the win, Geoff. What an awesome performance. Looks like 2009 is going to be a good year for you and, hopefully, all Australians after a fairly quiet 2008. Let's hope the mighty St. Kilda Saints follow your form. Keep smashing those drives! Mike

Tremendous power and control which needs to be envied, and congrats are due. Great job. Keep it up. Amazing easiness was seen on TV indicating total self control. Receive my best. Gilberto

Congrats, Geoff. Great win this week. I watched rounds two and three, and it really looked like you were hitting it solid. I will watch the last round on Fox Sports tonight when I get home from work. That stretch from the 9th to the 15th should make for some pretty interesting viewing! Good luck in the majors this year. Matt

Great start to the year, Geoff. All the best for 2009 as you have been my "main man" in the golf pool for the last 4 years. Again, congrats. Jim

AWESOME, Geoff! We luv you cause you're a Victorian! Hope your form continues through the year. Best wishes. Grozzo

Congratulations, Geoff. What a great win. That was an awesome display you put on. You have showed again you are truly one of the greatest players in the world. Hopefully, this is the first of many Aussie PGA TOUR victories this year. Congratulations, mate. Brendan

Geoff, well done on a great week of golf. I watched your progress on the internet and was impressed with the way that you held it together even when things didn't go your way early on in the round. That is something I will be able to draw upon when I get off to a slow start during my Saturday game at Wakehurst. Cheers. David

I was lucky enough to watch all four days -- brilliant performance. Best wishes for the rest of the season. Campbell

As a fellow Aussie it is great to see you guys on the PGA TOUR competing so well every week. Congratulations, Geoff, and may there be many more this year. You make us proud to be Aussies. Michael

You bloody beauty! David

Hi Geoff. Great win, awesome playing, and look forward to you leading from start to finish in The Masters. All the best for the rest of the year, and I look forward to watching you play more outstanding golf. I hope your family is well. Cheers. Clutters

Congratulations, Geoff! Great win from start to finish! And good to see an Aussie starting the year with a bang! All the best for the rest of the year! Sean

Congratulations on a solid win and fantastic start to 2009. Great start to the week for us all back home as we were able to watch your progress during work time. Hobart

Aloha Geoff! Congratulations on the wire-to-wire win at Kapalua, mate. You showed awesome patience and composure through the last round, and your short game has been nothing short of sensational recently. Keep it going for the rest of the year! All the best. Peter

One heck of a start to the season, Geoff! Keep up the strong play. I see a MONSTER season on the horizon! Kyle

Great job, Geoff! Watched your game all weekend and was amazed at your back nine on Sunday. Mike

Congratulations, Geoff. Great start to the year. You're an inspiration for all Aussie golfers, mate! Bernie

Awesome Aussie! I knew one of our boys would win the Mercedes-Benz Championship. Well done, Ogilvy! Andrew

Some of the best golf I've seen since Tiger's win at the U.S. Open. CONGRATS! Mike
