MELBOURNE, Australia — Peter Senior shot a final-round 3-under 68 on Sunday for a two-stroke victory at the Australian Masters, setting another age record in his home country and taking the title for the third time.
The 56-year-old Champions Tour regular became the oldest player to win the Masters, three years after becoming the oldest to capture the Australian Open. He also won the Australian PGA, the third major Down Under, when he was 51.
Senior finished with an 8-under 276 at Huntingdale.
American amateur Bryson DeChambeau (67), who won this year's U.S. Amateur and collegiate NCAA title, finished tied for second with Australians John Senden (70) and Andrew Evans (71).
