Did not make his first start until late-May, at the Senior PGA Championship, but went on to play 11 events (three as an open-qualifier) over the final five months of the year and finished 45th on the money list.

Had a great showing at the inaugural Shaw Charity Classic when he open-qualified and then finished second overall in Calgary. Posted three straight rounds in the 60s, including a closing-round, 7-under-par 64, for his best-career finish in a Champions Tour event. The second-place performance earned him a spot in the next tournament, the Montreal Championship and helped him in the late season re-shuffle which got him a spot in the final five full-field events.

His other top-10 finish came during that span when he posted three straight rounds in the 60s at the SAS Championship to finish seventh.
