May. 5, 2008
TOURNAMENT RECAP: Calvin Peete, age 41, became the oldest player to take the title with a three-shot victory over D.A. Weibring. One of the PGA TOUR's steadiest drivers, Peete was 5-under par over the last 10 holes with consecutive birdies on Nos. 12, 13 and 14 -- and when he birdied the 17th hole, he knew the title was his. His 14-under 274 set a new TPC Sawgrass tournament record.
