Concord, MA (My Sportsbook) - Jeff Sluman fired an eight-under 64 Sunday to jump past Loren Roberts and win the Bank of America Championship. Sluman ended the event at 17-under-par 199, one shot off the tournament scoring record. The win for Sluman was his first on the Champions Tour and first since he claimed his sixth and final PGA Tour crown at the 2002 Greater Milwaukee Open. Roberts, who led by one entering the round, posted a five-under 67 to end alone in second place at 15-under-par 201. Dana Quigley (68) and Mark McNulty (70) shared third place at minus-11, while John Cook (68) took fifth at 10-under-par 206. The final round was completed despite a one-hour, 40-minute weather delay at Nashawtuc Country Club. Sluman birdied the 10th to join Roberts in the lead at 14-under. The pair remained there until Sluman caught fire down the stretch with three birdies over the final four holes to pull away for his first senior title. MORE TO FOLLOW. |
