Bill Murray has come a long way from his days portraying the slovenly lovable groundskeeper Carl Spackler at Bushwood in "Caddyshack."
Murray,cheap jerseys along with partner D.A. Points, won the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am Sunday by two strokes.
Murray's victory was the second time he has won a pro-am on the Monterey Peninsula. The first was on the Champions Tour with longtime partner Scott Simpson.
The Murray-Simpson pair may have always brought a smile to the gallery, but the duo had never placed higher than seventh in the AT&T pro-am.
Not only was the victory the first time Points had ever won a PGA tour event, but Points became only the fourth player in the last 20 years to have his first win come on the challenging links of Pebble Beach.
"Pebble Beach may be the most iconic place in America to play golf, and to win here, it’s just a dream come true," Points told reporters.

Murray's victory gave him a much-needed confidence-boost. "I'm thinking of turning pro," the former "Saturday Night Live" star told the Associated Press. "I probably won't. It's really nice to play with a gentleman. He's a good person. He's from Illinois. He's Lincoln-esque in stature and unfailingly polite."
