It was career win No. 11 - and No. 2 of 2008 - for Kenny Perry at the Buick Open. Perry won with a final-round 66, and with two bogeys by Woody Austin on the final two holes, and with a missed 12-footer on the last hole by Bubba Watson.

Spaniard Pablo Larrazabal got into the French Open through a 36-hole qualifier, then wound up winning the prestigious title by four strokes. Larrazabal closed with a 67 to finish at 15-under 269. Colin Montgomerie came second. The victory put Larrazabal into The Open Championship, secured him a European Tour card through 2010, and jumped him all the way to 17th on the Ryder Cup points list.
