“This was definitely a special one,” Swafford said as he reflected on his victory at this year's American Express.
“A third win, and about a month ago my father passed away and his birthday was this week, so I know he was following and watching and to get it done, it was awesome.
“I had a good par on the last. I was hitting it so well all day. “I was just trying to stay a little taller in my posture. The way I have been rolling it this week I knew if I just kept giving myself chances I would be fine.”
Arnold Palmer is the most successful golfer in the history of the Phoenix Open having won the tournament a record three times.
