Sandusky represents an important chapter in Lynchburg's history.

All Faxon would do is lead the tournament from start to finish.
He had eagles in each of his four rounds closing with a 5 under par 65 for a total of 20 under. That was good enough to beat Tom Lehman by four shots.

U-S-G-A president Trey Holland said that Palmer will temporarily be released as the associations honorary chairperson of its membership program because he endorses Callaway's non conforming E-R-C 2 Driver.
Holland said the association can not have a spokesperson who is promoting not playing by the rules of golf.
The 71 year old Palmer began his alliance with Callaway last fall endorsing the club the U-S-G-A says is illegal because of its spring like effect.
