Tour player who survived heart attack at Honda Classic: 'I got one hell of a mulligan'

PGA Tour pro Jason Bohn knows that when you survive "the widow-maker" you've gotten a second chance, and he's going to make the most of it.

Speaking on SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio from the hospital, Bohn, 42, said Monday that he had no idea he was as close to a fatal heart attack as he was at last week's Honda Classic.

"My doctors all have told me that had I passed out or gone down on the golf course that they really don't think they would have had time to get the proper blood thinners in me — and put the stent in that they were able to do — in time," he said.
