Byrd swoops as Purdy slips
14 April 2012
Ted Purdy missed a short birdie putt on the last hole to hand the BC Open title to Jonathan Byrd at the En-Joie Club in Endicott, New York.
After a seven-hour delay, it looked as though the rain-soaked event was heading for a play-off until Purdy knocked his three-foot putt wide.
Byrd, whose only other win on the US Tour was at the Buick Challenge in 2001, finished with a 20-under-par total of 268.
