Fred Funk won the Mayakoba Golf Classic on the second hole of a playoff with Jose Coceres. The 50-year-old Funk becomes the second man to win a PGA Tour event after winning on the Champions Tour, after Craig Stadler. Funk led the tournament – the PGA Tour’s first in Mexico – since setting the course record with an 8-under 62 Thursday. Funk earned $630,000 for his eighth career PGA Tour victory. …

Bobby Wadkins made a 13-foot birdie putt on the final hole to hold off Allen Doyle and win The ACE Group Classic on the Champions Tour. …

American Nicholas Thompson won the New Zealand PGA for his first career Nationwide Tour victory. Thompson, looking to regain his PGA Tour card, beat Canadian David Morland IV witha par on the first playoff hole. …

Tom Fazio built a great run at Barefoot Resort in Myrtle Beach, and Chris Baldwin gives you a full look at the course, including photos, at MyrtleBeachGolf.com.

I'm trying to contact Fred Funk to see if he is the same Fred Funk I went to Barrie school with. How can I get in touch with him?
