Bloemfontein - 38-year-old Master's winner, Tim Clark of South Africa, birdied five of his last eight holes to breeze past the USA's Jim Furyk to win the Canadian Open.
The impressive win was the Durban-born player's first PGA title in nearly four years.
Clark, who won the prestigious Players Championship four seasons ago, posted a final round five-under par 65 on Royal Montreal's Blue Course for a 17-under total of 263 and a one-stroke victory over Furyk.
Following his win, Clark conceded that his putting was on song on the back nine.
The 44-year-old Furyk, took a three-stroke lead into the final round and looked well on his way to win a third career Canadian Open title.
A win would have brought an end to Furyk's own victory drought dating back to his 2010 Tour Championship title.
Following his win, Clark conceded that his putting was on song on the back nine. :
