Gary Hallberg’s first PGA tournament in five years came when he was declared the winner of the Southern Open at Pine Mountain, Ga., after the final round was rained out. Hallberg, with a three-round total of 10-under-par 206, won by a shot over Jim Gallagher, who finished second for the third time this season.
“I feel totally elated,” said Hallberg, who won $126,000 and moved to No. 64 on the money-winning list with a season total of $234,793. “I was right on the border for 125.”
The top 125 on the earnings list are exempt from qualifying next season.
