Woosnam wins Champions Tour's Insperity Invitational in playoff

Ian Woosnam emerged from a playoff with Kenny Perry and Tom Lehman victorious at the Champions Tour's Insperity Invitational, taking his first title on the tour.

Woosnam, 57, hit a 30-footer for birdie at the first playoff hole to win after finishing at 11 under for the 54-hole event at the Woodlands Country Club in Texas.

"I managed to dig in and grind through it," Woosnam told the Associated Press. "Played some great golf and I was fortunate to long-putt on the playoff hole."

Woosnam, the 1991 Masters champion, carded a 68 in the final round to finish even with Perry and Lehman, who shot 66 and 69, respectively in the final round.
