Kevin Stadler wins first PGA title of career at Phoenix Open
American golfer Kevin Stadler has won the first PGA title of his career at the Phoenix Open on Sunday with a three-under 68.
Son of 1982 Masters champion Craig Stadler, the junior Stadler won by a stroke over fellow American Bubba Watson, who missed a five-foot putt on the last to force a play-off, and Canadian Graham DeLaet.
According to the BBC, the win is Stadler's first in 239 PGA Tour starts, and earned him a place at Augusta this year, adding that the Stadlers are the ninth father-son winners in Tour history.
Meanwhile, the report mentioned that Scot Martin Laird was the best-placed European, finishing nine shots adrift while former Masters champion Watson, who had a two-shot lead going into the final day, had his worst round of the week, carding a level-par 71.
American Hunter Mahan and Japan's Hideki Matsuyama finished in a tie for fourth, one shot further back, the report added.
