In 2004, only played twice on the PGA Tour (missed cut at the Masters and T-63rd at The Memorial). Became the second-oldest player to make a cut on the PGA Tour when he finished T-63rd at The Memorial after a final-round 71, his lowest score on the PGA Tour in two years.
Missed the cut at the Masters, Memorial, and British Open in 2005. That year was the last time he played in a Masters, a major, and on the PGA Tour and PGA Tour Champions. It was his 45th Masters start, tied with Raymond Floyd and Billy Casper, and behind Doug Ford's 49 starts, Arnold Palmer's 50 starts and Gary Player's 52 Masters starts.
