The $330,000 check gave him $430,130 through six events, allowing him to remain in the Major Medical Extension category for the remainder of the season...Recorded third career runner-up finish at The INTERNATIONAL, one point behind Retief Goosen in the Modified Stableford scoring system. Forced to play 36 holes on Sunday, grabbed the 54-hole lead with 12 points in the first 18 holes.
