Snedeker beats Stanley in playoff at Torrey Pines
01/29/12 18:49
SAN DIEGO (Reuters) - Brandt Snedeker clinched his third PGA Tour title by beating fellow American Kyle Stanley in a nerve-jangling sudden-death playoff for the Farmers Insurance Open on Sunday.
The 31-year-old sealed victory by knocking in a five-foot par putt at the second extra hole, the par-three 16th, where Stanley missed from similar range.
The duo had finished the 72 regulation holes level at 16-under-par 272 on another glorious day of dazzling sunshine at Torrey Pines.
Stanley, who had briefly led by seven strokes early in the final round, triple-bogeyed the par-five last for a two-over 74 while Snedeker closed with a six-birdie 67.
