Went over the million-dollar mark for the fifth consecutive season and played his best golf during a three-event run early in the summer.

Highlight of his year was when he celebrated his 55th birthday by winning the Dick's Sporting Goods Open, his 12th career PGA TOUR Champions victory. Came from four strokes back Sunday and capped the win with a clutch, 7-foot birdie putt on the final hole to finish one ahead of Fred Funk. Final-round 65 included a back-nine, 5-under-par 30 that began when he holed out a short wedge shot from the right rough on the par-5 12th hole at En-Joie GC.

Prior to winning, was T3 at The Principal Charity Classic, thanks to rounds of 66-68 on the weekend at Glen Oaks.

After claiming the Dick's title, notched his third consecutive top-five finish when he shot 66-67 on the weekend at Club de Golf Fontainebleau to T5 at the inaugural Montreal Championship.

Was not among the top three again until October near Washington, D.C. After an opening-round even-par 70, shot three consecutive rounds in the 60s to grab a solo third-place finish at the Constellation Energy Senior Players Championship.
