I was cheering you all the way. Keep up your winning ways so you can win the FedExCup. Rachel Great win. I have a feeling that you might overtake No. 1 here pretty soon. Way to go! Ryan Every mom who was watching loved your comments regarding Mother's Day. Thanks again for the signed pin flag for my son. It meant a great deal to him in Iraq. It got a lot of attention and admiration from the other soldiers and Marines. Thanks again. Joe As a big fan of yours, I cannot be happier for you for this victory on Mother's Day. I admire your talent, discipline and attitude. Most of all, as a San Diegan, I admire and respect your charitable/ philanthropic work. I wish more golf fans knew more of this side of the Mickelson Family. Keep up the great work. Edward Thank you for wishing all the moms in the world a Happy Mother's Day. I missed seeing your wife and children there at the end of the tournament. They're adorable. Congrats and keep up the good work. Lorraine First, congratulations on your win. It was exciting to watch. Second, thank you for all your work supporting the troops. It shows more about who you are as a person than just a pro golfer. Good luck for the remainder of the season. Go win the FedExCup. Scott I have followed you throughout your entire career and have always loved your approach to family, life and golf. Congrats on your victory today. Brett What a fantastic win today.

Your biggest fan, Lynette You deserve this huge win. Congratulations to one of the best role models on the TOUR. If my children learn the respect and good nature you show your fans, they're off to a great start in life. Jason Congrats on your victory Sunday. But more importantly, thanks for being the role model this country needs more of in professional sports. Your interview with Bob Costas at the end of the broadcast was not only humbling, but inspiring to fathers like me who appreciate their spouses and the sacrifices mothers makes raising our children. Great job! Todd Congrats. Great course management and execution. Also, thank you to you and Amy for all of your charity work and donations. Randy Congrats! Great win! Even better, I loved the shout-out to all moms everywhere! Mark The most impressive part of your win was standing up for O'Hair's decision to compete. You are class all the way. Continued success. John You took the time to give my grandson a golf ball on Friday, and he has talked non-stop about Phil. Your rapport with the crowd is something that others should emulate. Thanks for making a 6-year-old ready to go to school for Show-and-Tell today. Stephanie Missing your wife and kids, sending good wishes to all the moms -- what great priorities. One more reason to love "Lefty." Beth |
