HEATH SLOCUM OVERTAKES THE BIG BOYS.

It was going to be the play off,of the century to decide the winner of THE BARCLAYS in the first of the FEDEX CUP play off's,before Heath Slocum decided to ruin the party by holing a 20 foot par putt for a stunning victory.
Waiting in the wings for a play off was Tiger Woods,Padraig Harrington,Ernie Els and Steve Stricker,but they were all stunned by Slocum's long putt.

After missing the cut in last weeks Wyndham Championship,Heath had to wait until the end to find out if he would make the play off.He did,with 125 making the finals he finished 124th.
After this week he is up to 3rd and with a cheque for $1.35million he can look forward to the next stage in Atlanta.
In joint 2nd,Ernie Els had a return to form with a 66,Tiger missed from 7 feet at the last for a 67,Harrington had another great finish with 4 birdies in the last 7 holes for a 67 and Steve Stricker lipped out at the last for a 69.All 4 came up one shot shy of the surprise winner HEATH SLOCUM.
