Tom Lehman Wins SAS Championship With Late Burst

CARY, N.C. — Tom Lehman had an eagle and three birdies in the final four holes Sunday to win the Champions Tour's SAS Championship.

The 56-year-old Lehman birdied the par-4 15th and 16th, eagled the par-5 17th and birdied the par-4 18th for a 7-under 65 and a one-stroke victory over Joe Durant.

"It's just nice to get back in the winner's circle," Lehman said. "It's nice to see the putts drop when you need them most."

Lehman finished at 12-under 204 at Prestonwood Country Club and earned $315,000 for his ninth victory on the 50-and-over tour and first since June 2014.
