Hole of the Day

Par 4, 451 yards, No. 18

When Jesper Parnevik made a 25-foot putt from below the hole for birdie, it sent thoughts of a playoff through the gallery and visions of showing off the Swede’s pink pants in prime-time in the Eastern time zone through the minds of CBS producers.

And it put a whole lot of pressure on Kirk Triplett.

Triplett, though, calmly sank a four-foot putt for par and his first PGA Tour victory, punctuating the feat by raising his right fist.

The first-place check of $558,000 was the largest of his career and more than he has earned in all two of his 10 PGA Tour seasons.
