Rhoden wins record 7th celebrity golf at Tahoe

Murcer, who succeeded Mickey Mantle in center field and played for the New York Yankees with Don Mattingly, died Saturday due to complications from a malignant brain tumor. He was 62.

Rhoden, a two-time All-Star, played for the Los Angeles Dodgers' NL championship teams in 1977 and 1978 and later played for the Pirates, Yankees and Astros. He didn't play on any team with Murcer, but pitched against him and they later played golf together.

On Sunday, he started to hit his drive on the par-5 16th but backed off when a boat horn sounded on the lake behind the green. His drive ended up a duck hook into the trees and he ended up with a par on a hole the rest of the front-runners birdied. But he came back with a 15-foot birdie putt and a fist pump on the par-3 17th to set up the dramatic finish and claim the $125,000 winner's check.

He and Quinn have dominated play in the celebrity tourney. During a 14-year stretch from 1992-2004, the pair combined to win 10 of the titles.

Charles Barkley, with his unusual stutter-step swing, finished last with minus 81 points.

"It is a very unorthodox swing," said LPGA great Annika Sorenstam, who has a home at Lake Tahoe and helped serve as an analyst for NBC Sports' telecast of the event. "I try to not look at it too much to be honest. I don't think it's a good image to have."

Some of the biggest galleries on the course followed the worst golfers, such as Barkley and Kevin Nealon, the former "Saturday Night Live" star now on Showtime's "Weeds" who had minus-49 points.
