Ian Leggatt carded an eight-under-par 64 in the final round to claim his first career PGA Tour victory at the Tucson Open.

The Canadian started the day four shots off the lead but came out scorching, posting birdies at six of the first eight holes.

He added a birdie at the tenth and more than offset a bogey at 13 by picking up strokes on the 15th and 17th.

Leggatt, who won the Buy.Com Dayton Open in 2000, had never finished higher than fifth in a PGA Tour event.

But with the world's top 64 players entered in the Match Play Championship, Leggatt took advantage and walked away with the first prize by two clear shots.

A professional since 1990, Leggatt earned his PGA Tour Card for 2002 by finishing fifth at Q-School.

Loren Roberts and David Peoples tied for second on 18 under, with Kenneth Staton and Fred Funk tied for fourth, three shots off the lead.
