Due to his 17-under par finish, Stuard claimed a new single tournament record for Michiganders by earning $648,000. Thanks to the Tiger Woods era of dramatically increased purses over the the past ten years, Stuard surpassed the first place check of $560,000 by Meg Mallon, a Michigan native who attended Mercy High School in Farmington Hills, in winning the 2004 U.S. Women\u2019s Open.<\/p>\n<p>In 2012, Pontiac\u2019s Tom Gillis won $501,600 by his runner-up finish at the Honda Classic. To date, that\u2019s Gillis\u2019s largest check. In 1986, Mt Pleasant\u2019s Dan Pohl earned $126,000 when he won the World Series of Golf in Akron. Michigan\u2019s last Tour winner was John Morse of Marshall. He won $216,000 in winning the 1995 Hawaiian Open.<\/p>\n<p>Stuard\u2019s big check sets him up well for the reminder of the season, vaulting him up on the money list with $746,200 in earnings, good for 10th spot. Incidentally, Stuard\u2019s long time teacher is PGA pro Gary Robinson of Jackson. They\u2019ve worked together since Stuard was a junior.<\/p>\n<p>Getting to the PGA Tour is a huge hurdle. Just ask former Michigan State standouts Ryan Brehm, Randy Hutchinson and Jack Newman.\u00a0 Last week, the trio failed to advance out of the second stage of <a href=\"http:\/\/web.com\">Web.com<\/a> Tour Qualifying in McKinney, TX.
