October 25th 2010 - Jonathan Byrd became the first player to ever win a PGA Tour event by finishing the tournament with a 203 yard hole-in-one on the fourth hold of a three man play-off at the 2010 Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open in Las Vegas. Jonathan has been working with Mike Bender for more than a year now and this was his first win since Mike began coaching Byrd. The win was worth $774,000 and a two-year PGA Tour exemption. It was Byrd's 4th PGA Tour victory. Congratulations to Jonathan for one of the most stunning finishes in golf history! |
