Mark Wilson won the Waste Management Phoenix Open on Monday after defeating Jason Dufner on the second playoff hole.
Wilson, a Green Bay Packers fan, now has cause for double celebration, after his beloved football team won their fourth Super Bowl title on Sunday night.
It's the 36-year-old's second win on the PGA Tour this year. Not bad for a golfer who prior to his victory at the Sony Open in Hawaii this year was ranked 237th in the world.
The triumph came on the second hole of a playoff with fellow American Jason Dufner, where he sank a eight-foot birdie putt to take the victory.
The match had spilled into a fifth day after lengthy frost delays on they opening two days. Extraordinarily, the exact same thing happened in 2007, the scene of Wilson's first PGA Tour victory, which as well came after a playoff.
Anywhere else, Phil Mickelson finished in a disappointing 29th place after a 71 that included finding the same water hazard on 17 that undid Tommy Gainey. A top-three complete would have seen him unseat Tiger Woods in the world rankings, yet it wasn't to be.
