Great job, Heath. We follow you at Milwaukee when you are here and really like the way you play. Congratulations, and why not win the FedExCup?! Chris

Heath, great job against the best players in the world. It's been four years since we've had the honor of congratulating you. Cheers! Joe

Brilliant, Heath, just brilliant! I have followed your career really closely since you won in '05 playing some amazing golf that week and have waited for you to recapture that form. Well, your play yesterday surpassed any previous performances. You have finally become the proven world-class golfer that I knew you would. Now lift the FedExCup, buddy. Dave

WOW! You are now one of the big boys! Congratulations. Frank

That was magical. Considering the four guys at 8 under, that putt on 18, well, was simply amazing. Congratulations, Heath; and hope to see you in Atlanta. Paul

Congrats on the win. I loved seeing you make that putt in the clutch!! That will make you so much mentally tougher going forward than anything else, I believe. Keep up the good work! I would like to see you win next week again!!!! Tracy

Way to go, Heath!! Watching you sink that last putt was unforgettable. All of Pensacola is so proud of you!! Jane

You played very well. My congrats to you. Keep your A game going. You have a chance to win the FedExCup. David

Heath! Great job Sunday nailing that 21-foot putt. Clutch play in a big tournament will send you blazing to the next round. Tell your caddie good job, by the way. He helped you position that ball well on 17. Emmanuel

Heath's win propels him to No.3 in the FedExCup standings and propels me to No.3 in my golf pool. Great win, Heath! You have always been a fav of those who follow all the players closely. Good luck the rest of the Playoffs! Douglas

Heath, I remember you burning up the course at the old Avoyelles Golf and Country Club when your dad was manager. Congratulations on this win! I always check the leaderboard on the PGA TOUR Web site to follow how you are doing. Keep up the good work! Hope to see you at the Zurich Classic next year. Pete

Great job, Heath. I knew you had it in you the whole round. I walked with you at the Deutsche Bank during the pro-am in 2005. Look forward to seeing you this week. John

Heath, I also am a graduate of South Alabama, though many years before you. I used to watch you hit balls out at Azalea City. I have followed your career and was pulling for you on Sunday. Congrats. Michael

Heath, congratulations!! You and I met at St. Barlow's CC when Travis won the Hooters Tour Championship, and I have been following you ever since! You played an incredible tournament!! Good luck the next three. Craig
