SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- Since the Price Cutter Charity Championship became a 72-hole event in 1993, nobody enjoyed a wider margin of victory than Tom Scherrer, who won the title last year by four strokes over Franklin Langham. Of the 14 events that have gone 72 holes (the 2001 event was rain-shortened), 10 have either been won by a stroke or ended in a playoff.

Jarrod Lyle continues to lead "The 25," while Rick Price made a big move with his victory at the Nationwide Tour Players Cup last week. Price moved from 46th to third on the money list.

In 2004, Tyler Williamson set the tournament 18-hole record when he strung together 12 birdies in the final round to shoot a 60. Williamson had six birdies on the front and back nines and moved from a tie for 23rd when the day began to a tie for third.

A year ago, Tom Scherrer's 66-63 start to the tournament was good for a two-stroke lead over Justin Bolli. But despite his fine play -- 36 holes that included only one bogey and two eagles -- Scherrer missed tying the 36-hole record by a stroke. That mark is shared by Joe Ogilvie (2003), Troy Matteson (2005) and Boo Weekley (2006). That trio has all gone on to win on the PGA Tour, with Ogilvie defending his 2007 U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee crown this week.

During Tom Scherrer's second-round 63 a year ago, he recorded two back-nine birdies. One of those was a hole-in-one on the par-3 13th hole. His other eagle came at the par-5 finishing hole.

Tom Scherrer's ace in 2007 was the 15th in tournament history but the first since 2004, when there were three. They came from Paul Gow, Sean Murphy and Will Moore.

This will be the 19th playing of this event, all at Highland Springs Country Club. Highland Springs is one of only two courses to host a Nationwide Tour event every year of the Tour's existence. Hillcrest Country Club in Boise, Idaho, site of the Albertsons Boise Open, is the other.

The last player to make this tournament the first Nationwide Tour victory of his career was Doug LaBelle II. He won the event in 2006 by two strokes over Nick Flanagan.

Although there have been six playoffs in tournament history, an extra session has not decided the winner since 2000, when Pat Perez defeated Pat Bates, Mike Heinen and Omar Uresti.

Last year's winner Tom Scherrer and runner-up Franklin Langham are in positions 3 and four on the Nationwide Tour's all-time money list. Scherrer is one of three players to have surpassed the $1 million mark ($1,094,491), while Langham has earned $988,979.
