Overton had 12 birdies, an eagle and no bogeys en route to rounds of 63 and 67 as both he and Goydos will make their first appearances in the Open Championship.

Goydos, who lost a playoff to Sergio Garcia at The Players Championship in May, edged Michael Letzig and Doug LaBelle II by two and three shots, respectively.

This week, K.J. Choi returns to the Blue Course at Congressional Country Club for his title defense against a less-than star-studded field. Tournament host Tiger Woods will not be on hand, as he recovers from recent knee surgery. Only two of the top-10 players in the world and five of the top-20 are scheduled to compete.

Choi won the first AT&T National with a 68 in the final round last year, beating Steve Stricker by three shots. Choi (No. 10) and Stricker (No. 7) are the only players ranked inside the world top 10 who will be in the limited field this week.

Perry, who also won the Memorial, vaulted to No. 19 this week.

Tiger Woods remained in first place, followed by Phil Mickelson. Geoff Ogilvy and Adam Scott switched spots from last week with the former U.S. Open winner going to third and Scott dropping to fourth.

"Holy shhhhhh-nikeys!" Kerr gushed, switching paths when she caught the TV camera staring her in the face.

Kerr was reacting to Sorenstam's miraculous hole-out for eagle on the 18th hole of the U.S. Women's Open on Sunday, which gave us the first truly great moment of the unofficial Sorenstam Retirement Tour.

Perry closed with a six-under 66 Sunday to win the Buick Open, his second win this season. He completed the event at 19-under-par 269 for his second title at this tournament.

The 47-year-old Perry also won The Memorial for the second time in his career earlier this season. Woods has won this event and The Memorial a combined five times, and Perry now has won the two events four times.

Chopra completed 54 holes at 16-under-par 200. The Swede won for the second time on the PGA Tour earlier this year at the Mercedes-Benz Championship.

Bubba Watson also posted a 68 to move into second place at 14-under 202. He was joined there by Woody Austin (69) and Dudley Hart (70).

Van Pelt, a first-round co-leader, stands at 14-under 130 and is two clear of Dudley Hart, who was also tied for first on Thursday, and Daniel Chopra. Hart shot a 68 in the second round, while Chopra managed a 67 to tie at minus-12.

Woody Austin (67) and Matt Jones (63) share fourth place at 11-under 133. Fredrik Jacobson (66) and Bubba Watson (67) are tied for sixth at minus-10.

"Well, I missed my 50-footer on 17," he said.

But the 15-time PGA Tour winner atoned for that "mistake" by holing plenty of other birdie putts on Thursday for a bogey-free eight-under 64 that earned him a share of the lead after one round of the Buick Open.

There was a weather delay of almost three and a half hours on Tuesday, so the decision was made to have the playoff with the four teams tied after 10 holes at Rhode Island Country Club.

Watson and Villegas finished the three-hole playoff at three-under par.

The surgery was performed by Dr. Thomas D. Rosenberg and Dr. Vernon J. Cooley in Park City, Utah. These doctors performed arthroscopic surgery on the same knee in April.

"We were confident going in to this surgery and I am pleased with the results," Dr. Rosenberg said in a statement released by Woods' management group, IMG.

Dye was announced as member of the class earlier this year, but the other four were announced Tuesday. There is still one more member of this class that will be named later this summer.

Hebert, a 39-year-old PGA head professional at Grand Traverse Resort & Spa in Acme, Michigan, finished the event at 12-under-par 276.

Sonny Skinner, who shared the lead entering the final round with Hebert and Kyle Flinton, posted a three-under 69 to take second at minus-11. Flinton managed a 72 to end alone in third at eight-under-par 280.

Cink got up-and-down for par on the 18th hole to squeeze out a one-shot victory over Tommy Armour III and 2007 champion Hunter Mahan. It was the fifth PGA Tour title of his career and first since he won twice in 2004.

Cink's victory followed a very good -- but winless -- half-season that saw him post six top-10 finishes, including two runner-ups and a tie for third place at the Masters.

Cink finished 54 holes at 15-under-par 195 and he is two shots clear of Heath Slocum, who carded a 64 on Saturday.

Kevin Streelman, a surprise first-round leader last week at the U.S. Open, fired a 62 in round three and is tied for third place with Vijay Singh (64), Tommy Armour III (65), Kenny Perry (65) and defending champion Hunter Mahan (67). That group came in at minus-12.

"It got my attention," Cink said. "I made an eagle there and it was off to the races." Having perhaps the best season among the players who haven't won on the PGA Tour this year, Cink rode a hot putter to a six-under 64 on Friday and took the second-round lead at the Travelers Championship.

His round included two eagles, four birdies and just one bogey in the last 13 holes -- all after he glanced at that leaderboard.

Justin Rose led a seven-way tie at five-under 65 on a crowded leaderboard where 104 players broke par.

Vijay Singh (66), 1997 champion Stewart Cink (66), David Toms (67) and Stuart Appleby (68) were among the players under par and within five shots of the co- leaders. They were also among those who grinded their way through a tough U.S. Open last week.

Woods limped around the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines over the weekend en route to his 14th major title, and clearly did so with one good leg. Over five days, Woods played 91 holes and walked more than 38,000 yards - or nearly 22 miles - on a bum wheel.

The real shocker is that Woods injured his knee last year.

The Golf Channel first reported that Woods needed ACL surgery to get back to 100 percent and he confirmed the news on his Web site.

(Sports Network) - Tiger Woods has decided to undergo season- ending knee surgery.

The Golf Channel, citing anonymous sources, reported that Woods suffered a small stress fracture in his left leg about two weeks before the U.S. Open and doctors feel that he needs ACL surgery to get back to 100 percent.

Open and when the official world golf rankings were released after the win, Woods sat atop the rankings for the 500th week.

Woods first moved to the top spot in 1997 months after collecting his first major title at The Masters.

Well, probably not.

As he told us in those old commercials, Tiger Woods doesn't take days off. But if he ever needed one, surely this was the time.

Tiger Woods finally beat Rocco Mediate on the 91st hole of the U.S. Open on Monday, ending an instant-classic major championship with a par at the 19th hole of a playoff.

Woods made a birdie to send the scheduled 18-hole playoff into sudden-death, then needed only a routine par at the next hole after Mediate bounced a bunker shot off the cart path and against the bleachers.

The 54-hole challenge takes place July 11-13 at the Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course in South Lake Tahoe, Nevada.

The list of competitors includes many current and former professional athletes, a host of entertainment stars, and one professional golfer -- Rick Rhoden.

"I felt like my game was there, I was able to practice and work on it. And I felt like I was ready," said Mickelson, who tied for 18th place. "I just didn't score, I just didn't perform.

"This has been a great Open championship, obviously I would like to have played better, but the way the course has been presented, the way it was set up, it was the fairest, best test of golf." Unfortunately, the hometown favorite could never recover from disastrous quadruple-bogey nine on the par-five 13th on Saturday. Mickelson took four shots from short of the green in round three and at the time was five-over par for the championship.

Battling a bum knee and needing another electric finish, Woods rolled in a 14- foot birdie putt at the 18th hole on Sunday to tie Mediate for the lead and bring back the U.S. Open for another day, for a Monday playoff at tough Torrey Pines.

"How much better can this get?" Mediate asked.
