    Ricky Barnes had no problem being a last-minute replacement.

    Under normal circumstances, Barnes would have spent the early part of the week preparing for the upcoming AT&T National in Philadelphia.

    But when the LPGA Tour's Paula Creamer withdrew because of a thumb injury, Barnes was asked to replace her.

    Barnes and J.B. Holmes combined for a string of seven consecutive birdies on the back nine Tuesday and captured the Charity Classic with a final 36-hole score of 21-under 121.
