Tom Watson became the 13th oldest player to win on the Champions Tour, birdieing the final two holes Sunday for one-stroke victory over senior newcomer Fred Couples in the season-opening Mitsubishi Electric Championship. "This is what I live for in my career to do what I did today," Watson said. "I don't think I'll have too many more, but I had this one."The 60-year-old Watson, coming off a win with Jack Nicklaus in the Champions Skins at Kaanapali, closed with a 7-under 65 to finish at 22-under 194 for his 13th Champions Tour title and his first victory in 34 career starts in Hawaii on the two tours. |
