PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. — The celebrity portion of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am was supposed to end on Saturday. And then came a script right out of Hollywood, starring Vaughn Taylor as himself.
His victory over Phil Mickelson — also playing himself in this drama by the sea — sounds like pure fiction.
Taylor is a 39-year-old who had gone just more than 10 years since his last victory and had not held a full PGA Tour card for the last three years. He once played in a Ryder Cup. Now he was trying to find his way back on the Web.
