Report
Harris English holed a six-foot birdie putt to take his first PGA Tour win in seven years at the Sentry Tournament of Champions.
English had held the joint overnight lead and started slowly on Sunday, reaching the turn on par 36 but made his case for the title with a trio of birdies on the way back.
His four-under round of 69 put him on 25 under for the tournament, where he was joined by Chilean Joaquin Niemann who picked up nine shots to force a play-off.
It could have been a different story as Niemann missed a seven foot putt for birdie on the 18th, and then mishit his second shot as they played the 18th again.
Justin Thomas finished third, a shot behind the leaders, while Ryan Palmer who had held the lead going into Sunday finished fourth after a round of 71.
Martin Laird was the best of the Brits, his tournament score of 16 under good enough for a share of 17th place.
