It definitely takes Grape Nuts to hold off a charging Tiger Woods.</p> <p>Here is the story of how Slocum did it ...</p> <p><em>JERSEY CITY, N.J. (AP) &mdash; Heath Slocum might have been the one player no one expected to win The Barclays.</em></p> <p><em>He was locked in a tense battle over the final hour Sunday at Liberty National with some of the biggest names in golf - Tiger Woods, Steve Stricker, Padraig Harrington and Ernie Els.</em></p> <p><em>Even more incredible is that a week ago, Slocum was not even sure he would make it to the opening event of the PGA Tour Playoffs. Having missed the cut, he had to wait until the tournament was over to learn that by the slimmest of margins - two points - he was the No. 124 seed out of the 125 players who qualified.</em></p> <p><em>"My fate was not in my own hands,'' Slocum said.</em></p> <p><em>He had his hands around that putter on the 18th green, however, and delivered the biggest shot of his life.</em></p> <p><em>On the same green where Woods stunned the crowd by missing from 7 feet, Slocum knocked in a 20-foot par for a one-shot victory at The Barclays to get this FedEx Cup bonanza off to a compelling start.</em></p> http://img.fannation.com/upload/user_profile/image/397/2/thumb/Perloff.jpg 684 NY Andrew Perloff New York 3992 75841
