Gunga Galunga: Bill Murray Wins AT&T National Pebble Beach Pro-Am, Discusses Going Pro

“Cinderella story. Outta nowhere. A former greenskeeper, now, about to become the Masters champion.”

In what was easily the best story to come out of the sports world this week, Bill Murray paired up with pro golfer and fellow Illinoisan D.A. Points to win the 2011 AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.

This was no celebrity charity putt-around, mind you. The annual tourney draws a large cadre of professionals, this year including Phil Mickelson and Vijay Singh. In winning the tourney with a two-hole lead over Hunter Mahon, D.A. Points won a spot at the Masters.

"Pebble Beach may be the most iconic place in America to play golf, and to win here, it's just a dream come true," points told CBS Sports.

Murray, who has competed in the event every year since 1992 and has a handicap of 13, sounded actually remotely serious when discussing winning the event at the legendary gold course.

"I felt like my mind had left my body," ... "I didn't know how to behave. It was like, 'Holy cow, I won. What do I do? I guess I can die now.' "

Of course, it wasn’t all serious.

As a good luck charm for the final round, Murray reprised Carl Spackler’s outfit from “Caddyshack” – with a rumpled flannel shirt and goofy fishing cap. Later, once Points had solidified the win, he recreated the flower-fighting scene from the movie, shouting the iconic “it’s in the hole!”

Proceeds for the Pebble Beach Pro-Am event go to local charities, and the tournament has raised over $86 million raised since the tourney was founded by Bing Crosby in 1937.

While Points will go on to play in the Masters and take home over a million dollars in prize money, for Murray the reward is pride in a job well done.

Or as Spackler might say, “Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness.' So I got that going for me, which is nice."
