If Slocum missed the cut this weekend, he would not have been eligible for the PGA Tour playoffs in the next few weeks (The total is cut off at 125, Slocum was 124). Slocum's win, worth $1.35 million, marked his first victory in four years on the PGA Tour. Tiger, with a final round 67, tied for second with Els, Harrington, and Stricker at -4 under.
