Long-time Mike Bender Golf Academy student D.J. Brigman trusted his gut when he figured he needed to get to 10-under par to have a
chance to win the Nationwide Children's Hospital Invitational. When
early morning rains softened the famed Scarlet Course at the Ohio State
University, Brigman knew he could start firing at flags in an effort to
make up some ground. Brigman fired a 7-under 64 to reach
10-under par, good for a one-stroke victory and a big enough check that
just might land him back on the PGA TOUR in 2011. Brigman
collected $144,000 from the purse, vaulting him from No. 47 to No. 6 on
the money list with 13 tournaments to go in the 2010 season.
