HORSCHEL BEATS DAY IN BYRON NELSON PLAYOFF

Billy Horschel won the PGA Tour’s AT&T Byron Nelson with a par on the first playoff hole Sunday after Jason Day pulled his 4foot par putt left and past the hole. That miss by Day almost wasn’t even needed for Horschel, whose 36-foot birdie chance was rolling straight toward the center of the cup before stopping just short. He won for the fourth time on the PGA Tour and for the first time since taking the 2014 Tour Championship for the FedEx Cup title. uBernhard Langer cruised to his second consecutive Regions Tradition victory in Birmingham, Ala., shooting 8-underpar 64 Sunday to match Jack Nicklaus’ record of eight PGA Tour Champions major titles.

Langer wiped out a six-stroke deficit over the weekend and entered the final round down two strokes to Fred Funk. He finished at 20-under 268 for a fivestroke victory over Scott McCarron and Scott Parel.

uLexi Thompson shot 6-under-par 65 on Sunday to finish off a wire-to-wire victory in the LPGA Kingsmill Championship with a tournament-record 20-under 264 total. Thompson broke the tournament record of 19 under at Kingsmill’s River Course set by Annika Sorenstam in 2008. The victory, Thompson’s eighth, gave her at least one in five consecutive seasons.
