Ames Gets An Important Victory

Hello. Congrats to Stephen Ames for winning in Disney. I've played those courses, so I know firsthand what a player has to go through there.
Ames will be going to Hawaii now, along with Mike Weir, to play in the Mercedes-Benz Championships.
Both Weir and Ames made the most of this fall finish. I think non-winners who didn't participate really missed the boat. Weir and Ames' victories, while not of the major variety, give them lots of rewards, many similar to a major victory.
Now both don't have to listen to the press all off-season. They can plan their schedules. And relax.
For a Canadian, is this now the best time ever to be watching the PGA Tour? Having two proven winners is not something we've had the luxury of for many years. Maybe Barr/Zokol, or Nelford/Zokol, or Barr/Nelford/Hallderson. But certainly not like now. Weir tied George Knudsen for most wins on Tour by a Canadian. Ames now has 3 victories.
Enjoy the off-season guys. Good luck in 2008!

Regards,
Steve
