Lucas Glover, 29, held off a swarm of challengers, including major champions Phil Mickelson, David Duval and Tiger Woods, on Monday at the U.S. Open for his first major championship title and just second TOUR win. Here are some of the e-mails PGATOUR.COM received from Glover's fans.

Congrats, Lucas! Huge win! Charley

Fantastic! I've followed you, Bubba Watson and Boo Weekley for about four years now. When you won the Funai Classic, I was sooo happy, and now you've shown the world your game is up there with the very best! Sensational. Daniel

Dear Mr. Glover, congratulations on your very big win today at the U.S. Open. I am so glad for you. I wish you and your wife the best for the future, and I hope to see you win many more. Well done. Janet

Mr. Glover, congratulations on your first major! It's no surprise with your ability to strike the ball. Best of luck from here on. Brannon

Great job!!! Unfortunately for me, I was teaching summer school in South Louisiana and had to watch the leaderboard only. Would have loved to see it live. Awesome job!!! Hope you have continued success!! Steve

CONGRATS, Lucas. AWESOME WIN. Hope this is one of many to come. GO TIGERS. Cory

Gritty performance, Lucas! Congratulations on major No. 1. I wish you many more! Marvin

Congratulations on a great U.S. Open. You were the best on this day. Keep the good play up, and win many more. From a fellow Greenville boy, Terry

Lucas, well done! I'm also a bass fisherman, and it takes patience sometimes to put the puzzle together to catch them. I'm sure having to stay patient helped you out today by not forcing things. Stay that way, and good things will continue to happen. The Lord Jesus bless you! Joe

Great job, Lucas. We love you here in Southeastern Connecticut. John

Way to go!!! The best player definitely won. Keep up the good work!!

You played the last three holes like the true champion that you are. James

When you won your first TOUR event by holing the bunker shot on the 72nd hole at the Funai in 2005, I was pretty positive that you were going to go on to do great things. Over the years you built a very solid career, but the victories didn't come. You're one of my favorite golfers, and every time I see you on a leaderboard, I find myself pulling for you. I congratulate you on this breakthrough victory, and I am positive that this will not be the last of the victories. I even feel positive to say that it won't be the last major championship for you. Best to you and yours. Matthew

Lucas, as a fellow Clemson alum, I am so happy for you and the family. Thanks for making us a proud group of people today. Just awesome!!!!! Go Tigers! Mark

Great job. We in Easley, S.C., are proud of your win and wish you many more. Maybe a British this year to top it off. Tom

WOW! Congratulations on a life-changing win!! Bob

Congratulations, young man. There's a good reason it's called the "Open." Any player with the skill, grit, composure, and intelligence can compete and win this event. Your win is a remarkable example of the indomitable spirit. Best to you in the future. Walter

Thanks for putting Greenville on the golf world's map. We're proud that you are one of us. GREAT GAME! Don & Jeannie

Lucas, congratulations on a well-deserved major championship victory. I was praying for peace and patience for you throughout your round, and you handled it like a champion. I am from Anderson and have followed your career since you were a freshman at Clemson. Way to go, and God bless you and your family. Kyle

Congrats! Nice to see all your hard work pay off! Also had you on my virtual cup team. Thanks for the $$$. CB
