Golf-Langer continues senior dominance with runaway major win (Reuters)

May 22 (Reuters) - German Bernhard Langer continued his dominance of senior golf when he birdied the final three holes for a six-shot victory at the Regions Tradition in Alabama on Sunday.

The evergreen 58-year-old German shrugged off a slow start to the final round to claim the first of the year's five designated major championships on the 50-and-over Champions Tour.

Langer started the day with lead of four strokes and, after a quiet front-nine, caught fire on the back side with five birdies for a closing five-under-par 67 on the Greystone course in Birmingham.
