Stricker wins in Fort Worth

June 1, 2009 By WRN Contributor

Steve Stricker Madison area native Steve Stricker won on the PGA Tour for the first time this year.  Stricker birdied a second playoff hole and beat Tim Clark and Steve Marino in a playoff to win the Crowne Plaza Invitational. 

Stricker said it's a special win after missing chances earlier in the Tour season.  Stricker has 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th and 7th place finishes and now has a first to go along with it. 

Stricker earns more than $1.1 million for the win and moves him into second place on the FedEx Cup points list, 142 points behind leader Zach Johnson. 

Stricker trailed by 2-shots going into the final round and becomes the third Wisconsin native to win on Tour in 2009, joining Madison's Jerry Kelly and Menomonee Falls native Mark Wilson.
