GET IN THE HOLE!

Former UVA All-American Denny McCarthy moved up five spots during Sunday’s final round of The American Express in LaQuinta, Calif. for a tie for a sixth-place finish. It marked the fourth time in his last five PGATour stops he has posted a top-15 finish. This impressive second shot led to an eagle on No. 16 yesterday. Click here to see it for yourself.

GET WELL DIKE!!!
