OAKMONT — Philip Barbaree might have won over some new fans in the Pittsburgh area.

Although Barbaree finished 24 shots over par through the four days at Oakmont shooting 12-over in the final round Sunday, it was still an emotional weekend for the 27-year-old after finishing above the cut line for the first time in his career in a major.

Beaver County contractor named in lawsuit from Pennsylvania AG's office
A contractor from Beaver County is being sued by Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday after allegedly failing to complete contracts and operating while unregistered. The lawsuit, which was announced on Friday afternoon, alleges that James Martin, who also goes by the name Doug Martin, failed to perform home improvement contracts by doing subpar work or never doing any work at all. His business, Martin Lawn Services, also allegedly did work after his registration under the Pennsylvania Home Improvement Consumer Protection Act (HICPA) had expired. 'This contractor took significant sums of money from hardworking Pennsylvanians hoping to improve their homes, then failed to honor the contracts,' Sunday said. 'He also knew he had to register as a contractor with our office, failed to do so, and kept taking on clients.' According to the attorney general's office, at least seven court judgments have been entered against Martin since 2022, and the business owner is currently in a pending criminal case regarding theft and deceptive business practices. This most recent lawsuit will seek to stop Martin from doing business in Pennsylvania, seek consumer restitutions and apply civil penalties for the alleged incidents. Any consumers who believe they or someone they know may be victims of Martin's business should file a complaint with the Bureau of Consumer Protection at call 1-800-441-2555 or email scams@ This article originally appeared on Beaver County Times: Beaver County contractor named in lawsuit from PA Attorney General
