And it rolled right in, Pernice said. It was pretty scrappy. I hung in there. Short game is part of it as well and my short game held up and carried me through.Pernice closed with a 3-under 67 — also making a 6-foot birdie putt on 18 — to match Haas at 11-under 269 on Desert Mountains Cochise Course.

He also won a playoff in Iowa in June and has four career victories on the 50-and-over tour after winning twice on the PGA Tour.I was just thinking last night, its such a privilege to be able to be out here, first and foremost, to be out here playing with Freddie Couples and Jay Haas and Kenny Perry and Bernhard Langer and Hale Irwin and Tom Watson, Pernice said. To be able to do that and compete and do what we do at our age is pretty amazing that this is here for us.Haas had birdie chances to win on the second and third playoff holes, but missed both to the right.It was a long day, longer for the team that loses in extra innings, Haas said.

Pernice made a 6-footer after missing the green to the left and hitting a flop shot.On 18 on the second extra hole, Haas 8-foot birdie also slid right, and Pernice made a 4-footer for a scrambling par. He drove right into a narrow wash channel in the desert, slashed backward to the fairway, hit his 246-yard approach to the right of the green and set up the par putt with a long pitch.Just hit a bad drive, Pernice said. I had been aiming down the left side and kind of cutting with the wind and came up and out of it and blocked it and so the wind got it. .... Luckily, I had a shot, but I had to go backwards quite a ways because I was going in the direction of the washout.Haas made a 6-foot birdie putt on 18 on the first extra hole after Pernices two-putt birdie.In regulation on 18, Haas holed a 35-foot birdie putt from the fringe to take the lead at 11 under.

He has 17 Champions Tour victories after winning nine PGA Tour titles.Its been a wonderful year and, you know, just a shot here or there, Haas said. Yesterday just was pretty awful, but today came back on a pretty tough day to have a chance there.Perry eagled the final hole for a 68 to finish a stroke back.Langer closed with a 65 to tie for fourth with Colin Montgomerie at 9 under.Langer wrapped up his second Charles Schwab Cup points title last week and earned $158,000 on Sunday to break Hale Irwins tour record with $3,074,189.

He led the tour with five victories, two of them majors, and had 12 top-three finishes in 20 starts. He also won the season points title and $1 million annuity in 2010.Its still mind-boggling just to reflect on my year, Langer said. When you think about it, you play golf from January until now, its 10 months, and to have played as consistently well as Ive done in 20 tournaments is hard to believe really.Montgomerie finished with a 67.

The reigning national champions opened the year as the top-ranked team in college football and, despite not dropping a game, fell to third ranking behind one-loss teams. With their narrow 37-35 victory over Georgia Tech in the ACC Championship, Florida State extended their winning streak to 29 straight games. However, their margin of victory over the Yellow Jackets still left debate as to whether the Seminoles would have a spot in the first-ever College Football Playoff. Florida State’s year was made up of narrow victories and controversies from 2013 Heisman winner quarterback Jameis Winston. The Seminoles unbeaten run, dating back to 2012 seemed destined to end in their third game of the season, when the school suspended Winston one game for yelling an offensive comment on campus. Sophomore Sean Maguire was asked to make his first career start to keep Florida State unbeaten against a worthy competitor in Clemson. Maguire struggled at times – going 21-of-39 passes with one touchdown and two interceptions – but threw a 74-yard touchdown pass to Rashad Greene to tie the game at 17-17 with six minutes remaining. The Florida State defence later bailed out Maguire after an interception with a fumble recovery to send to overtime. Following a fourth-down stop by Florida State, running back Karlos Williams punched in a 12-yard touchdown to win the game. Florida State had Winston in the lineup for their next matchup against a top-25 team, faccing undefeated, fifth-ranked Notre Dame.dddddddddddd Winston threw a go-ahead touchdown for Florida State with seven minutes remaining, but Notre Dame appeared to respond with a game-winning touchdown with 13 seconds left. However, the Fighting Irish were called for offensive pass interference on the play and failed to convert on fourth and goal from the 18-yard line, sending the Seminoles to 7-0 on the year. After double-digit victories over No. 25 Louisville and Virginia, the Seminoles appeared poised to enter the College Football Playoff with momentum as three unranked teams left on the schedule. However, Florida State put together three unimpressive wins, beating Miami (FL), Boston College and Florida by a combined 12 points. In those win, Winston threw for just four touchdowns to six interceptions. However, in the ACC Championship, Winston played his best game of the season throwing for 309 yards and three touchdowns without an interception. The Seminoles never trailed by more than seven points and all but secured their victory with a field goal to go up 37-28 with four minutes remaining. Georgia Tech closed the gap inside the final two minutes, but fell short of a comeback. The debate can be made that ‘a win is a win,’ but the College Football Playoff committee sees it differently. Florida State is the only unbeaten team, yet they will not be facing fourth-ranked Ohio State as the top seed on New Year’s Day. Instead, the Seminoles enter as nine-point underdogs against 2014 Heisman winner Marcus Mariota and second-ranked Oregon. ' ' '
