PGA TOUR CHAMPIONS
Stephen Ames went wire-to-wire to cap off a dominant week with a four-stroke victory at the Mitsubishi Electric Classic. Despite hitting his tee shot on the final hole into the water, he made a 30-foot par putt to finish at 19-under 197 to break his own 54-hole record at TPC Sugarloaf by four shots. It’s his second win of the season after winning in Morocco and he joins David Toms as the only multiple winners on the Champions tour this year. It’s the first time in his Champions tour career that he’s won multiple times in one season. The victory also vaulted him up to No. 4 in the Charles Schwab Cup standings. A birdie on the final hole enabled Miguel Angel Jimenez to finish solo second. Steve Stricker finished tied for seventh, extending his streak of top-10 finishes in all seven tour events this season. He has 11 straight top-10 results dating back to last August.
