adminNORTH CAROLINA. — The four-stroke victory by Steven Bowditch at the AT&T Byron Nelson golf tournament on Sunday might rank as only his second best experience at the TPC Four Seasons Resort Las Colinas.
Four years after getting married at the resort, Bowditch became the latest Australian to win the PGA Tour stop in Irving, Texas, when he pulled away with a decisive four-birdie burst over the final eight holes.
“This is a very special place for myself and my wife. We took some wedding pictures here.
“Now I get to take some more pictures,” Bowditch told CBS TV after tapping in his winning putt only a few yards from where he tied the knot with Amanda.
He finished at 18-under 259, earning nearly $1.3 million for his second PGA Tour victory, while Americans Charley Hoffman (65), Jimmy Walker (66) and Scott Pinckney (66) shared second on 14-under.
The odd total came as the par-four 14th was played as a par-three the final three rounds due to saturated conditions. — Reuters.
