Todd edges Weir,DeLaet 7th at Byron Nelson...Final scoreboards

PGA Tour
Byron Nelson Championship
Irving Texas
Canadians: Ames E 70 72 DQ, DeLaet T7 -8 68,66,6871 Weir 2nd  -12 68,66,6767 Fritsch +2 72,69,71


Round 4
Brendon Todd fired a bogey-free 4-under 66. He finished at 14-under 266, good enough to beat Mike Weir by 2 shots. It was the 77th career PGA Tour event for Todd, who twice in the past five years had to go back to back to the Web.com Tour to regain full playing privileges. He earned $1,242,000, a PGA Tour exemption through the 2015-16 season and a spot next year in the Masters.


Weir, the 2003 Masters champion who won the last of his eight PGA Tour titles in 2007, finished with a 67.  Graham DeLaet tied for 7th at 8-under 272.
Weir had his best tournament since finishing second behind Dustin Johnson at Pebble Beach in 2009. The 44-year-old had a stretch when he missed 17 cuts in a row after he injured his elbow, including all 14 tournaments he started in 2012.


Best golf I played in a long time. I was happy with the way I played,” Weir said. ” I was definitely determined to try to win today, but I can feel good about the way I handled things out there.”


He had birdies on four of the first five holes. He was 13 under and ahead of Todd by two strokes when his tee shot at No. 5 settled 1 1/2 feet from the cup. That came after Weir blindly hit out of a fairway bunker to 3 feet at No. 4. But he missed the fairway and green for a bogey at the 431-yard sixth hole whileTodd, who played the last 31 holes at TPC Four Seasons without a bogey, was tapping in at the fifth for a 2 shot swing.

Round 4
Miguel Angel Jimenez won his national championship, the Spanish Open after a three-way playoff to become the European Tour’s first winner over the age of 50. He extended his own record as the oldest European Tour winner at 50 years and 133 days old.“There is no secret,” Jimenez said. “Good food, good wine, good cigars and some exercise.”


Jimenez beat Thomas Pieters of Belgium and Australia’s Richard Green in a playoff after he was the only one to make par on the first extra hole. All three players finished on 4-under 284.


It was the Spaniard’s 21st European Tour win and his second of the season after he won at Hong Kong in December, also following a playoff, at the age of 49 years, 337 days.


Pieters led by two shots going into the final round at the PGA Catalunya Resort but only managed a 3-over 75 despite an eagle on No. 15. Jimenez shot a 73, while Green carded 72. It was the first win for Jimenez at the tournament in 27 appearances.

Fred Couples was disqualified Sunday after missing his tee time. He was 9 over after a 73 Saturday, his best round. Cook’s double bogey on No. 14 cost him the lead.
Cook’s ball was buried deep in the right bunker just under the lip, and appeared to ricochet backward before winding up a couple of feet out of the sand.Tour officials reviewed the bunker shot using phone video shot by an event staffer and determined that Cook hit it again on his back swing.


Canadians Rod Spittle claimed a share of 31st at 4-over 292. Jim Rutledge was 10-over and tied for 53rd
