S.C. native Tommy 'Two Gloves' Gainey wins 2012 McGladrey |

D.J. Trahan prepares to hit on No. 12 |
The third year for the PGA tournament at Sea Island gave patrons another chance to see PGA pros teeing it up in a coastal Lowcountry setting. With beautiful fall weather settling in over the wekend, it was Tommy 'Two Gloves' Gainey who shot the low round on Sunday. It was a 10-under par score of 60, setting a new course record in the process, to lay claim the 2012 McGladrey Classic title. Gainey is a native of South Carolina and he out-dueled fellow Sandlapper D.J. Trahan and tourney host Davis Love III for the top spot. New for 2012, this is now the first event in the FedEx Cup standings, so Gainey is now in the points lead and in the hunt for the season ending $10 million bonus in 2013 if he can maintain his position. The McGaldrey Classic is Gainey's first ever PGA Tour win - Congrats!
