Broadhurst wins Senior Open as Jimenez falters

Paul Broadhurst rallied to win the Senior Open Championship, firing a final-round 68 to overtake Miguel Angel Jimenez.

The finale at Carnoustie appeared to be a coronation for Jimenez, who began the day with a four-shot lead after challenging the course record one day prior. Instead, Jimenez stumbled with a bogey on No. 9 followed by a double on No. 10 to fall back to the pack.

The next man to emerge as sole leader was American Scott McCarron, who carded five birdies across his first 12 holes. But McCarron bogeyed Nos. 16 and 18, and his 9 under total left him alone in second, two shots back.
