Sunday Finishes

... and Open Thread ...

PGA Tour
Phil Mickelson reached the final hole at the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial tied with Rod Pampling and Tim Clark. Then he hit a wayward drive, way left. But this time, he recovered, playing a fantastic shot from amidst thick trees, slicing the ball around and over and to about 12 feet from the cup. Then he made the birdie putt for the victory.

European Tour
Miguel Angel Jimenez became the first golfer to win the so-called "BMW treble" when he defeated Oliver Wilson the second playoff hole at the BMW PGA Championship. Jimenez had previous won the BMW Asian Open and the BMW International Open. Jimenez's final-round 68 included an ace on the fifth hole. Luke Donald and Robert Karlsson tied for third.

Champions Tour
Jay Haas made five bogeys and only one birdie on Sunday - but that was good enough on a very tough Oak Hill Country Club to win the Senior PGA Championship. Haas shot 74 and finished at 7-over, one stroke better than Bernhard Langer. Greg Norman, making a rare Champions Tour appearance, finished tied for sixth.

Nationwide Tour
Another birdie on the final hole for the win, this time by Jeff Klauk at the Melwood Prince George's County Open. Klauk's final-hole heroics kept him out of a playoff against Jeff Brehaut.

LPGA Tour
In the 295th start of her LPGA career, Leta Lindley is finally a winner. Lindley posted a final-round 67 to tie third-round leader Jeong Jang (who shot 68), then beat Jang with a birdie putt on the first playoff hole.

Ladies European Tour
Suzann Pettersen was awarded the crown at the Ladies Swiss Open when tournament officials decided the course was too water-logged after heavy rains to play the fourth round. Pettersen would most likely have won anyway, since her 54-hole lead was six strokes over Amy Yang.
