Andrade wins the championship but Langer wins the Cup...

Bernhard Langer continues to dominate the Champions Tour even though he narrowly lost the championship in a playoff to Billy Andrade to a birdie on the first hole.

Andrade two-putted the par-5 18th for his birdie while Langer couldn't get up and down from the greenside bunker. Andrade earned the win with a -6 64 on Desert Mountain’s Cochise Course and he got into the playoff by making a clutch 12 footer for birdie on the 18th to get to -14 while Bernhard lipped out an eagle on the same hole that would have given him the win. He shot 67.
 
Consider this though. He's 58 now, still the fittest guy on tour, he won the Charles Schwab Cup points title for the second straight year and record third time overall, earning a $1 million annuity eventually beating Colin Montgomerie and Jeff Maggert in the points race after entering the week third in the standings after he earned 508 points with his $254,000 to top Monty by 338 points and Maggert by 377.
 
He also won the money title for the record fourth straight year and record seventh time in eight years, finishing with $2,340,288 in part by successfully defending his Senior Players title in June for his fifth senior major title, he now has 25 wins on this tour.
 
Andrade banked $440,000, earlier in the year he teamed with Joe Durant to win the Legends of Golf in April and he also won the Boeing Classic in August. Micheal Allen ended up 3rd with a 70, -12 total. 
 
Stephen Ames wrapped up a great week with a T6 after his 69 -9 total.
