Choi shot a closing 4-under 68 Sunday for a two-shot victory over Bernhard Langer and Alex Cejka at the PURE Insurance Championship at Pebble Beach for his first PGA Tour Champions win. The 51-year-old Choi reeled off four consecutive birdies from Nos. The 64-year-old Langer, who has 41 PGA Tour Champions wins, had an uneven final round of 4-under 68 that included seven birdies, a bogey and a double-bogey. Choi, an eight-time winner on the PGA Tour, had a previous best finish on the senior circuit of tie for second at the Sanford International, where he lost in three-man playoff. Ending the long winless run made this victory more special for Choi.
