American Harold Varner III holed a miraculous eagle putt from 92 feet on the par-five 18th at Royal Greens Golf & Country Club to win the US$5 million PIF Saudi International powered by SoftBank Investment Advisers today and beat compatriot Bubba Watson by a shot.
In one of the most remarkable finishes seen in tournament golf, Varner prevailed after Watson, playing three groups ahead, had also made three on the last from 15 feet to appear on course to win.
Varner, leader at the start of that, closed with a one-under-par 69 and finish on 13 under to claim by far the biggest victory of his career, worth a US$1 million cheque.
Twelve-time PGA Tour winner Watson fired a stunning 64, in what is the season-opening event on the Asian Tour, while Spaniard Adri Arnaus shot 71 to take to sole possession of third, three behind the winner.
Asian Tour regular Steve Lewton, who was paired with Watson, enjoyed one of the finest tournaments of his career after closing with a 67 to ties for fourth, a stroke further back.
