PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. -- Joe Ogilvie and Tom Lehman are heading to Augusta National.
Ogilvie was ninth on the PGA Tour money list after The Players Championship, while Lehman's tie for second at TPC Sawgrass left him right behind in 10th, qualifying both for The Masters in two weeks.
Ogilvie finished 1-over at The Players, 10 shots behind champ Fred Funk. But that was still good enough to leave him at $1,223,855. When Ogilvie finished his round, he wasn't sure what his status was as far as going to for the green jacket.
"If I get it, it'll be great," Ogilvie said as he signed autographs.
Don't worry, Joe. You're in. It will be the first time down Magnolia Lane for Ogilvie, who'll turn 31 on the Friday of Master's week.
For Lehman, it's a return to Augusta after missing last year. Lehman cemented his entry by tying for second, the prize money of $597,333.33 bringing him to $1,211,560 -- $2,030 ahead of 11th place Kenny Perry.
"I'm looking forward to getting back there," Lehman said.
