Bad Boy Of Pro Golf Is A Big Winner
MEMPHIS AP Dangerous as the Peck's lad grew, he headed home with the biggest check of his career after winning the 30,000 Memphis Open. Hill, who weighed 165 pounds at start and 140 now, said he would see a doctor to explain sudden weight loss. He brashly noted two months and one week of PGA suspensions this year, and his 12th season victory came with a five under par 65 at Colonial Country Club, finishing 15 under 265. Elder finished two back at 267, with Coody and Aaron tied at 268. Hill led with a 25-foot birdie on 12 and a near eagle on 13, while Elder bogeyed 12 to fall back.
