Jun. 5, 2007

Editor's Note: K.J. Choi won his fifth PGA TOUR title at the Memorial Tournament presented by Morgan Stanley on Sunday. Here are some of the e-mails PGATOUR.com received congratulating Choi, who gets to head to Hawaii for the season-opening Mercedes-Benz Championship in 2008.

Congratulations on your amazing victory. Your game was an astonishing performance to watch with no weaknesses visible anywhere. With the victory, you didn't just beat the best in the world but you also brought great pride to Koreans and fellow Asians around the world. Thank you and congratulations! Joonho

Congratulations on the big win! You are fun to watch because you have a solid game and you're always smiling. Good luck going into the U.S. Open! Kelly

There is a major in your near future. Also, you exemplify all that is good with sports and sportsmanship. Jack

Way to go. Consistency pays off! Hope many other Asian players follow your steps by making the PGA TOUR and truly reaching out to anyone without boundaries. Young

From one K.J. to another, congrats on your win at the Memorial Tournament. You make it fun hearing your own name on such a bright stage! KJ

Congratulations on your win at the Memorial Tournament. You had awesome discipline and stamina to win this tournament with so many players on your heels. Robert

The composure and integrity you showed down the stretch was very inspiring to me! You are a true champion on the PGA TOUR. Dan

You showed that same focus you did a few years ago in last round at The Masters when you holed out for eagle at No. 11. The only difference this time is you made the putts you needed to make to win. Congrats. And thank you for doing it your way. Outstanding! Rich

Congrats on winning the Memorial. The saves on the final several holes were some of best finishes I've seen in a while. By the way, your English has improved significantly. You make Koreans proud. The rough is very tall and greens are lightning fast at Oakmont, but with your stats and steady nerves, I'm certain you will do very well. Good luck! Alex

You played very well. I just read that they used to call you "Tank" in Korea. Should we call you that now? You're as strong as one! Good win. Good luck in the U.S. Open. Ron

As a Korean-American and resident of Dublin, Ohio, today was one of the special days. As a Korean, I was very proud of how you handled yourself this week with the fans, and not just on the golf course. As a local resident, Dublin really displayed a first-class act to the golf world not just in the U.S. but in Korea as well. We were honored to be with you this week and now consider you as one of our local favorites. And we look forward to 2008. Doc

You definitely came through for me and my partner in our golf fantasy league. Your win at the Memorial, while winning us some money off the top, pushed us right up to the No. 1 position. I've always been a fan of your playing ability and your calm demeanor. Well done winning Jack's tournament, and good luck the rest of the year. John

Way to go! You have once again proven that talent alone is not a recipe to win. Hard work, ethics, determination, and passion will overcome any adversity. I also hope to instill those values in my children. Well done. Ross

Congratulations Mr. Tank! Your golf was splendid and your English has also improved greatly. God be with you all the way! Jin Kyu

I had you in my fantasy golf league the past two years but not this year. I lose, but you win! I was right about you but picked the wrong year. Congratulations. Richard

You did a great job. I hope you will make another victory in the U.S. Open. Way to go! Prince

What a nice win. You are a true champion and a gentleman. You make all true fans proud. I hope you have many more wins. Stephen

Cool as a cucumber. A job well done. Nice shooting. Keep it going. Durke

It was exciting to watch you play. Thanks for the memories and that AWESOME double fist pump! Good luck at Oakmont! John

Congratulations on your great victory, and God bless you and your family. Henry

It was so refreshing to see you win the Memorial Tournament. Now take a few days off and enjoy the time with your family and friends. Best wishes for your continued success both on and off the course. Steve
