FRED FUNK WINS JELD-WEN TRADITION

By mustang6560 on 8/24/10

Fred Funk won his third major of his Champions Tour career over the weekend at the Jeld-Wen Tradition. His 276 total was the highest winning score at the Tradition since 2002.

Funk, also the 2009 U.S. Senior Open winner, has six Champions Tour victories. He won eight times on the PGA Tour.

The former Maryland coach took the lead for good with a 15-foot birdie putt on the 598-yard, par-5 16th, then two-putted from 40 feet for par at 18 to finish at 12-under 276 on the Sunriver Resort's Crosswater Golf Club course.

And who was on his bag with Fred the whole time? PGA Caddie Mark Long. Mark has been apart of the SkyCaddie family for several years. In fact, he is the creator of the SkyCaddie Mapping Methodology.

Everyone at SkyGolf would like to congratulate both Fred Funk and Mark Long.

Stay tuned, more is coming from the two of them.
