Holman Wins Australian PGA Title in Three-Way Playoff

(Reuters) - Nathan Holman rebounded after making bogeys on the last two holes in regulation to win the Australian PGA Championship after a three-way playoff.

Holman sealed his first professional title on the first extra hole after finishing tied with American Harold Varner and Dylan Frittelli at even par.

All three players missed the fairway with their drives on the first playoff hole, the tricky par-four 18th, but only Holman found the green with his approach.

The 24-year-old safely made a par to claim the title after Varner and Frittelli both made bogeys at the Royal Pines Resort on Australia's Gold Coast.
