Aloha Augusta National – Jonathan Byrd Wins Two In a Row

Congratulations to Dr Mo’s player, Jonathan Byrd who earned his fifth PGA Tour victory by winning the season opener Tournament of Champions in Hawaii.   Jonathan Byrd started the 2011 PGA Tour season the same way he finished his 2010 season - with a play-off victory.  The former PGA Tour Rookie of the Year (2002) felt overwelmed after winning the first 2011 tournament.   It was only a few months ago,  that Jonathan was 130th on the money list going into the  fall series and fighting to keep his card.    After a historical play-off performance and the first sudden death play-off decided by an ace in PGA Tour history, Byrds victory at the 2010 Justin Timberlake Shiners Hospital  earned him a spot in the 2011 season opener at Kapalua.   Jonathan Byrd worked hard in the off season preparing for the Tournament of Champions in Hawaii.  With this 2011 victory, he’s earned  spots in both the 2011 Masters at Augusta National and the 2011 US Open at Congessional Country Club.
