RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- Kyle Thompson became the first player in Web.com Tour history to win an event three times, taking the Rex Hospital Open in a playoff Sunday.
Thompson also won at TPC Wakefield Plantation in 2007 and 2011.
The 36-year-old former South Carolina player, making his second start of the season, won with a 4-foot birdie putt on the second hole of a playoff with Patton Kizzire and Miguel Angel Carballo.
Thompson holed his winning putt after Carballo missed from 30 feet and Kizzire from 7.
''I knew I had to make it to win,'' Thompson said.
