2014 Season

• OHL Classic at Mayakoba: Made one start, at the PGA TOUR's OHL Classic at Mayakoba, but missed the cut.

2013 Season

Had a magical season in professional golf, rising from a player with partially-exempt status to a two-time winner on the circuit, one of two rookies (Rocco Mediate) with a pair of Champions Tour victories. Earnings of more than $1.2 million were over $500,000 better than his best year on the PGA TOUR (2002).

• Pacific Links Hawai'i Championship: Also, matched the low round of the day Sunday, shooting 66 at Kapolei to move up into a T4 at the Pacific Links Hawaii Championship.
• Montreal Championship: Added a second title in early September when he chipped in from 35 feet on the third playoff hole to defeat Kenny Perry at the Montreal Championship. Started the final round four strokes behind 36-hole leader Bernhard Langer and trailed Perry by two late in the final round. Playing in a group one ahead of Perry, he made a birdie at No. 16 to pull within one, and minutes later, Perry dropped into a tie after a bogey at No. 17, leaving the pair tied at 5-under-par 211 at the end of regulation. After each made pars on No. 18 twice, he chipped in for the win at No. 10 for the win.
• Regions Tradition: Posted rounds of 69-67 on the weekend at Shoal Creek in June to post a T3 finish at the Regions Tradition.
• Insperity Championship: After securing the seventh position at the 2012 Qualifying Tournament in the fall of 2012, got into events from his position-number before John Riegger and Jeff Brehaut both turned 50 in mid-June. Took full advantage of his opportunity and fittingly, first victory came on Cinco de Mayo. Became the first player from Mexico to win on the Champions Tour when he claimed the Insperity Championship near Houston, defeating Mike Goodes and Gene Sauers in a playoff to win the title after shooting a final-round 67 to come from seven strokes back and get into the overtime session. After Sauers dropped from the playoff with a bogey on the second extra hole, he made a par on the third playoff hole and then watched Goodes miss a 6-foot par-saving putt. Win came in his ninth career Champions Tour start and was his first TOUR-sponsored title since the 2005 Lake Erie Charity Classic on the Web.com Tour, ending a victory drought of 7 years, 10 months, 1 day. Matched the biggest comeback on the final day in Insperity Championship history, equaling Larry Nelson's comeback from seven shots in the inaugural event in 2004, and it was also the biggest come-from-behind win on the 2013 Champions Tour.
• Liberty Mutual Insurance Legends of Golf Demaret Division: Was a late addition to the field the following week at the Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf and finished T4 with teammate Mark O'Meara.

• Toshiba Classic: Played with a heavy heart at the Toshiba Classic but shot three consecutive 68s to finish T6 at Newport Beach CC, his best career Champions Tour performance, and it came on a layout where he was previously an honorary member. Older brother Mario had passed away prior to the start of the event. Traveled to Mexicali, Mexico for the funeral on Thursday of tournament week.

2012 Season

• Champions Tour Q-School: Earned conditionally-exempt status on the 2013 Champions Tour by virtue of securing the seventh position at the National Qualifying Tour. Finished 72 holes in a T4 but he first lost out with a par on the first playoff hole and then lost out for the sixth spot when Chie-Hsiang Lin made par on the third playoff hole.
