DENNIS WATSON SCORES FIRST WIN FOR 23
YEARS - AND IT'S THE US SENIORS TITLE!
Everything comes to he who waits ... and Zimbabwean Dennis Watson's 23-year wait for a victory (he won three times on the US PGA Tour in 1984) is over at last!
He won the US PGA Seniors Championship by two strokes over the Kiawah Island Ocean Course with a final round of 68 for 279.
One of the reasons for Watson's long no-win spell has been a series of injuries that would have broken the spirit of a lesser man.
Argentina's Eduardo Romero was runner-up and a second golfer from Zimbabwe, Nick Price, was third.
Mark James fell down the standings with a final round of 78 to finish joint 33rd on 295.
LEADING FINAL TOTALS
279 Dennis Watson (Zimbabwe) 71 71 69 68.
281 Eduardo Romero (Arg) 68 70 71 72.
282 Nick Price (Zim) 71 70 70 71.
Other score:
295 Mark James (Eng) 74 71 72 78 (jt 33rd)
