THE WOODLANDS, Texas — Fred Funk can attach one more good memory to the Woodlands Country Club.
Funk birdied the final hole Sunday to beat Tom Lehman by a stroke in the Champions Tour’s Insperity Championship.
With 16-year-old son Taylor carrying the bag, Funk birdied four of the last five holes to win on the same course where he won the Houston Open in 1992 for the first of his eight victories on the regular tour. He met his second wife, Sharon, at a post-tournament event that year and Sharon was the first person to run onto the green and hug him Sunday.
“It was a storybook-type week,” said Funk, who shot 67.
It was Funk’s seventh victory on the senior circuit and first since 2010.
The 55-year-old became the first player in five years to win a regular tour and Champions Tour event on the same course.
Tom Watson won the 1980 British Open and 2007 Senior British Open at Muirfield.
