Kuchar wins Turning Stone Resort Championship playoff

Posted at 8:52 AM by Charlie Hanger |

Matt Kuchar and Vaughn Taylor resumed their sudden-death playoff at Turning Stone this morning. (They were still tied after two playoff holes on Sunday night.) Here is a hole-by-hole breakdown of today's action.

- No. 13, par 4, third playoff hole: Both made bogey

- No. 18, par 5, fourth playoff hole: Kuchar made a long birdie putt from 23 feet, and Taylor answered with a short birdie putt of his own.

- No. 12, par 5, fifth playoff hole: Kuchar got up and down from a bunker to salvage par and extend the playoff. On to the par-4 13th again.

- No. 13, par 4, sixth playoff hole: Taylor's tee shot found the water, leading to a double bogey, and Kuchar made par to win.
