PGA star Hunter Mahan chose family over work this weekend, and though it may have cost him more than $1 million, he sounds ecstatic.

"What a whirlwind of a day," Mahan tweeted Sunday morning, "but I'm happy to announce the birth of my daughter Zoe Olivia Mahan born at 3:26 am. Thanks for all the support!
"Both Baby and Mom are doing great. Thanks to all to my sponsors who appreciate what's important in life and all my fans for being Awesome!" he added in a second tweet.
Mahan was halfway to his sixth career PGA Tour tournament victory, with a two-shot lead after Friday's second round of the RBC Canadian Open at Glen Abbey Golf Club in Oakville, Ontario.

But after receiving a call early Saturday that his wife, Kandi, had gone into labor, he withdrew from the tournament and flew home to Dallas to be present for the birth of the couple's first child rather than continuing to pursue the $1.008 million first prize.
"Kandi and I are thrilled about this addition to the Mahan family, and we look forward to returning to the RBC Canadian Open in the coming years," Mahan said Saturday, according to PGATOUR.Com.

Mahan has made more than $2.3 million already in 2013, with four Top 10 finishes this year, including a tie for fourth place at the U.S. Open and a tie for ninth place at the British Open over the past two months, PGATOUR.com says.

Money can run out. Having kids will never end.

Sounds like a no-brainer.

Again, there is a HUGE difference between a million dollars and A CHANCE AT a million dollars.

the paradox: child tax credits don't run out either

hence why your logic and reason aren't working on the proud parents in this thread, even though you're right

She's an ex cheerleader named Kandi. Just tell her you were there, the one wearing the surgical mask. She'll never know the difference....

? He's a good pro golfer. The opportunity will roll around quite often.

no, i consider spending time with my family more important than buying unnecessary material shit. Maybe someday you will have your priorities straight and maybe even have family.

I hope you dont have kids or a wife now, because i feel bad for them.

The babay was born two weeks early. I'd leave too.

It may sound and be a cliché but I work to live not live to work. There are probably a bunch of hourly workers that missing a couple of days of work would be a much bigger sacrifice. His life, his call, other than I hope the kid is ok, I could care less.
