QUICK CHIPS
At long last: It took Chris Moawad until his 11th start at Roosevelt to win his first Astronomer’s Monument trophy… New record on the horizon? As the only golfer to notch 4 wins in a season (2008), Moawad picked up his 4th victory Saturday and still has the Tournament of Champions in December… Streak of dominance: Counting back to last season’s win at the Tournament of Champions Moawad has won 5 of his last 7 starts… Tour first: Moawad’s win Sunday made him the 1st golfer in MGM Tour history to win 3 tournaments in a row in the same season (3-tourny winning streaks by Grigorian and Quiroz covered 2 seasons)… Fidler’s 38: Moawad’s 39 just missed tying P-Jay Fidler’s, now 9-year old record round… Long day: Play was so backed up at Roosevelt the Tour played as a 6-some! Curse continues: illness forced former 2-time champion Walter Vargas out of this year’s edition, making it the 7th straight year he’s missed the tournament… Tweet-tweet: No birdies to end the season; $6 rolls over to next year with the pot now at $12.
