Australia’s Jason Day has won the US PGA Tour event title at Torrey Pines in California in a playoff.
Day shot a closing round of two-under-par 70 to be tied at nine-under with Americans JB Holmes (72), Harris English (72) and Scott Stallings (69).
English and Stallings were eliminated at the first playoff hole – the 18th – and when Holmes made bogey at the next hole – the par-three 17th – Day had a tap-in for par.
Day moves to world No.4 with the victory, usurping Adam Scott as the highest-ranked Australian.
