Carl Pettersson thought he had missed the weekend cut moments after finishing the second round of the Canadian Open at 1 under. Two days later, he was celebrating his fourth PGA Tour title.

"I walked in the locker room and [fellow player] Jay Williamson had all the scenarios written out, and he's like, 'Grab a beer.'" Pettersson said. "Before you know it, I'd had seven beers. Made the cut. And my caddie had to drive me home. I wasn't in that bad of shape, but I didn't want to drive. I can usually handle seven beers."

Pettersson moved into contention Saturday with a tournament-record 60, then closed with a 3-under 67 on Sunday to beat playing partner Dean Wilson by a stroke.
