    About

    The Verizon Heritage is a PGA Tour FedEx Cup event, first played in 1969. The venue has been the Harbour Town Golf Links at the Sea Pines Resort on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The Harbour Town course, which frequently appears on several "Best Courses" lists, was designed by famed golf course architect Pete Dye, with an assist from Jack Nicklaus. In 1972, the first two rounds were played on both the Harbour Town Golf Links and the Ocean course at Sea Pines, with the final two rounds at Harbour Town.

    Furyk, two other share lead at Verizon Heritage

    A grueling Masters finally caught up to K.J. Choi at the Verizon Heritage, and Jim Furyk, Charles Howell III and Greg Owen took advantage to share the lead after yesterday's second round of the PGA Tour's Verizon Heritage at Hilton Head Island, S.C.

    All three were tied at 7-under-par 135, a stroke ahead of a group that included two-time Verizon champ Boo Weekley and Stuart Appleby.

    Furyk leads by a stroke at Verizon Heritage

    Jim Furyk carded a third round of 4-under-par 67 and leads by a stroke over Brian Davis at the Verizon Heritage.

    The third round had multiple seven-way ties for the lead and Fuyrk was able to nose ahead of very tight field by sinking an 11-foot birdie-putt at the 18th hole. There currently are 23 players within five strokes of the lead, which should set up for a very exciting final round. Furyk won last month at the Transitions Championship and on Sunday he will be looking to join Ernie Els as a multiple winner on the this year's Tour.

    Jim Furyk wins the Verizon Heritage

    Jim Furyk carded a final round of 2-under-par 69 and won on the first hole of a playoff over Brian Davis at the Verizon Heritage.

    On the front nine, Furyk continued his excellent play from Saturday and posted three birdies to make the turn at 3-under-par, which was good for a one-stroke lead over Brian Davis. The back nine saw Furyk start to struggle and the lead was tied twice before Davis went ahead after Furyk bogeyed the par-3 14th hole. Davis then carded back-to-back bogeys starting at the 15th hole to give up the lead, but a playoff was forced after he converted a 17-foot bride at the final hole. In the playoff, both players found the fairway, but after it was ruled that Davis was away, he put his approach shot on the beach. Furyk made a safe play onto the green and basically won after Davis called a two-stroke penalty on himself for moving a loose impediment in his back-swing. The victory is the 15th PGA Tour title for Furyk and he joins Ernie Els as the only multiple winners on this year's Tour.
