Spider Man Wins BMW and Assures Fed Ex Cup for Veej













A spectacular performance by Camillo Villegas at the BMW third event in the Fed Ex series gave him his very first career tour win. In the process, he secured the Fed Ex Cup $10M purse to Vijay Singh. All that remains for Veej (as a result of winning the first two events) is to show up in two weeks for the final event - Coca Cola - and play 72 rounds to collect the trophy and the $10 million. I think he owes Camillo... don't you.

This is the third year on Tour for the 26-year-old Colombian and he goes home with $1.26 million. Not bad for 3 years of thrills and excitement. Anthony Kim, Dudley Hart and Jim Furyk gave him a run but Camillo kept his cool and sailed to a decisive victory. Keep your eyes on this guy and Kim for the near future. Oh, and don't forget Sergio. Maybe they can make some history before the Tiger returns.
