Arnie's Charge Fizzles as Barber Wins Phoenix Open
In rain delayed action at Phoenix Open Miller Barber seized a final hole birdie from 45-50 feet to win by one stroke over Jerry Pate and Lee Trevino. Palmer faded after five early birdies leaving Barber $40,000 from a $200,000 purse and another title in 1977’s Napa win to boost his World Series of Golf bid. Palmer blamed his putter while Barber, 46, called it a great thrill and noted the chase for pay-line spots, quips about being among the game’s last good ol' boys.
