Garcia wins Nelson; 1st PGA Tour title since '12

IRVING, Texas -- Sergio Garcia made a par on the first playoff hole at the Byron Nelson on Sunday to beat Brooks Koepka for his ninth career PGA Tour victory and match the late Seve Ballesteros for the most by a Spanish-born player.

The 36-year-old Garcia shot 2-under 68 and made six birdies and four bogeys to get to 15-under 265. He was two groups ahead of the final pairing of hometown favorite Jordan Spieth and Koepka, who bogeyed the 14th and 15th holes and just missed a birdie chance on 18.
