Mediate magic again. Pro from Pittsburgh cards 4 eagles with hole outs...one per round, and captured the Frys.com Open at CordeValle
He gained folk hero status with his U.S. Open duel with Tiger Woods at Torrey Pines in 2008, that ended on the 91st hole. Today, the engaging 47 year old who grew up in Pittsburgh idolizing Arnold Palmer, accomplished something that "The King" never did...holing out for eagle 4 times in the same tournament. Rocco Mediate's final miraculous shot came on the 17 hole at the Frys.com Open in San Martin, California when his approach shot on the next to last hole ended in the cup on his 2nd shot of the par 4. He aced the par three third on opening day, and did his magic on the 4th hole day two, #15 yesterday, and then today draining a pitching wedge from 116 that sealed the deal
