PGA Tour - Mahan gets his first TOUR win

Some things never change

For the PGA Tour, things didn't change much at all over the past weekend. Tiger Woods cruised to another victory (his 52nd since turning pro) at the Wachovia. With an eagle-birdie-birdie run in the middle of the round, he sure did make things look easy.

I felt that Saturday was really the day to watch. With Tiger and Vijay Singh paired together, there was some really great golf being played. From Singh's on-the-fly eagle to Tiger hitting three wood about a quater-mile, there were plenty of great shots to watch.

Sunday felt like a little of a let-down as several of those on the top of the leaderboard fell away.

On the Champions Tour, newcomer Scott Hoch notched his first win. That adds to the 11 wins he had during his time on the PGA Tour.

All in all, it was guys who know how to win, getting it done again.
