McCarron stuns Langer to win Senior Players Championship (Jul 16, 2017)

OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) For 70 holes, Bernhard Langer did everything necessary to win his fourth straight Constellation Senior Players Championship.

Unfortunately, his performance at Caves Valley will be remembered only for what happened after that.

Langer’s uncharacteristic collapse on Nos. 17 and 18 paved the way for Scott McCarron to win his first major tournament on the PGA Tour Champions in sensational comeback fashion Sunday.

McCarron shot a bogey-free, 6-under 66 to make up a six-shot deficit and beat Langer and Brandt Jobe by a stroke.

”I’ve been working so hard for this,” said McCarron, a 51-year-old Californian.
