SYDNEY (AP) -- Jordan Spieth sank a 10-foot birdie putt on the first playoff hole Sunday to beat local hopes Cameron Smith and Ashley Hall to capture his second Australian Open title.
Spieth, the former world No. 1 golfer, had to sink another clutch par putt on the 18th hole to join Smith and Hall at 12 under 276 after 72 holes, forcing a three-way playoff.
Four players held the lead at various times on a dramatic final day, including Spieth, who was playing the Australian Open for the third time.
