If there was a competition for Father of the Year, it would be over, and Hunter Mahan would be the winner!

Hunter Mahan is a golfer, and he was leading going into the 4th and final round of the RBC Canadian Open on Sunday July 28th, when he received a phone call when he was on the practice tee. The phone call - it was his wife and she was in labor, three weeks early. Hunter Mahan, didn't hesitate, he walked off the tee, withdrew from the tournament and flew home, to be with his wife and was there in time for the delivery of their child.

What did he give up? A potential $1 million paycheck for winning the tourney. What did he gain? The priceless gift of being present to assist his wife and be there for the delivery of a healthy child.

Hunter... In my opinion you're the winner!
