Draining a 15-foot birdie putt on the par-5 16th hole, Fred Funk took the lead for good at the 2010 JELD-WEN Tradition. His one-stroke victory over Michael Allen and Chien Soon Lu gave Funk his second title at the tournament in the past three years and his third Champions Tour major overall. Funk's 12-under 276 was the highest winning score at the tournament since 2002.

After trailing for most of the day, Mike Reid finally drew even with John Cook on the final hole, then earned the JELD-WEN Tradition victory on the first playoff hole. Reid's final-round 3-under 69 left him with an overall 16-under 272 score. It was the second major title of his career.

Although he came into final round with a one-stroke lead, Fred Funk decided to play as if he were trailing. With that mentality, he ultimately shot a 3-under 69 and earned a three-stroke victory at the 2008 JELD-WEN Tradition. His 19-under 269 total was aided by a bogey-free third-round 65,

With four birdies through the first seven holes in the final round, Mark McNulty opened up a three-stroke lead at the turn. He only built on that advantage on the back nine, finishing with a five-stroke victory at 16-under 272. That margin gave McNulty the third-largest win in tournament history. He also was the only player in 2007 to finish all four rounds under par.

Eduardo Romero made up five shots in the final round with a 7-under 65. He ultimately topped Lonnie Nielsen in a playoff to earn the first Champions Tour win of his career. Romero got better each round in 2006, opening with an even-par 72 before recording scores of 70, 68 and then the 65.

Continuing his impressive Champions Tour start, Loren Roberts earned his first series victory at the JELD-WEN Tradition in 2005. Roberts had finished fifth and tied for second in his previous two events. A bogey on the second playoff hole was good enough to give him the victory over Dana Quigley.

Closing with four straight birdies and a 5-under 67 score, Craig Stadler earned a one-stroke victory. It was his second straight win on the Senior circuit (he would go on to win a third consecutive tournament). Stadler had started the event with two rounds of 70s, then shot a 68 in the third round to put himself in position for the win.

A four-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole lifted Tom Watson out of a four-way tie for first and to the JELD-WEN Championship. It marked Watson's second major victory of the year on the Seniors circuit. Watson had led by four strokes after shooting a record 10-under 62 in the second round.

Jim Thorpe claimed the Countrywide Tradition win with a birdie on the first hole of sudden death. The 18th hole had also treated him well earlier in the tournament -- he holed out for eagle in the third round and birdied in the final round to force the playoff. Thorpe shot a 2-under 70 in the final round and finished with an 11-under 277.

Becoming just the second wire-to-wire winner in the event's 13 years, Doug Tewell blew away the field in 2001. He claimed a nine-stroke victory with a 23-under 265 total. Tewell recorded a tournament-record 10-under 62 on the final day to secure his victory.

Competing in his fifth Seniors Tour event, Tom Kite earned his first win on the circuit. He outlasted Larry Nelson and Tom Watson in a six-hole playoff for the victory. Kite, who led by two strokes coming into the final round, had a chance to win with a 15-foot birdie try on the 72nd hole, but his ball stopped inches short of the hole. He finished the tournament with an 8-under 280.

In a first for the Seniors Tour, two rounds of The Tradition in 1999 were snowed out. When play ultimately concluded, Graham Marsh earned the top spot on the leaderboard. Rounds of 69 and 67 left Marsh with an 8-under 136, three shots better than runner-up Larry Nelson. It was Marsh's sixth title and second major victory on the Seniors circuit.

To win The Tradition for the second straight year, Gil Morgan had to overcome his two-shot deficit heading into the final round. With a 2-under 70, he did just that. Morgan's total score was was a 12-under 276. The victory marked his fifth in his previous 10 starts.

Capping a successful tournament with an eagle on the final hole, Gil Morgan claimed The Tradition title in 1997. He finished six strokes ahead of runner-up Isao Aold with a 22-under 266. In addition to playing the last 33 holes without a bogey, Morgan had the best score or tied for it each round.

Earning the 100th victory of his professional golf career, Jack Nicklaus beat out the field at The Tradition in 1996. He also became the first golfer to win a Senior PGA tournament four times. Nicklaus shot matching 7-under 65 scores on each of the last two days to finish at 16 under.

Looking impressive on the course he designed and built, Jack Nicklaus earned his third win at The Tradition. He edged out Isao Aoki in a playoff. Aoki nearly won in regulation, holing an eagle putt on the 72nd hole. But Nicklaus answered with a birdie to force extra holes. Nicklaus ultimately prevailed on the third sudden-death hole, sinking his birdie putt.

Raymond Floyd's clutch putting helped him win The Tradition in 1994. First he had to birdie the 72nd hole to force a playoff, and then he had to birdie the 18th hole once again on the second sudden-death hole to earn the title. Floyd had just six bogeys throughout the tournament, finishing with a 17-under 271 total.

Tom Shaw won The Tradition in 1993, ending a 3 1/2-year title drought. When Mike Hill eagled the 72nd hole to move into a tie atop the leaderboard, Shaw calmly sunk his birdie putt to secure a one-stroke victory. Shaw finished with a 19-under 269 score.

Rather than let the automatic penalty he incurred by inadvertantly causing the ball to move in the tee area on the 13th hole shake his confidence, Lee Trevino used it as motivation down the stretch. Trevino dug deep to finish with a 14-under 274, one stroke ahead of Jack Nicklaus. The two dueled throughout the entire final round and were never separated by more than one shot.

After two rounds at The Tradition in 1991, Jack Nicklaus was languishing 12 shots out of first. He mounted an impressive charge up the leaderboard in the final two days, however, to finish with an 11-under 277 and successfully defend his title. He made up five strokes on the final day alone, ultimately earning a one-stroke victory.

In 1990, Jack Nicklaus became the fourth player to win in his Senior Tour debut. Playing on a course he designed, Nicklaus finished with a 10-under 206, four shots better than runner-up Gary Player. He was tied with Player and Rodger four holes into the final round, but birdies on the fifth, ninth, 14th, 15th and 18th provided his winning margin.

A bogey-free final round helped Don Bies edge out Gary Player by one shot at the inaugural playing of The Tradition in 1989. Bies' 6-under 66 score, which included a decisive 8-foot birdie putt on the par-5 15th hole, pushed his total score to a 13-under 275.
