NAPLES, Fla. (AP) — Lee Janzen birdied his final hole to get into a playoff, then beat Bart Bryant to win the ACE Group Classic on Sunday.

Janzen forced the playoff with an 8-foot putt on No. 18. He then watched Bryant put his approach into the water on the extra hole. Janzen put his second shot on the green, two-putted and won the Champions Tour event at TwinEagles Golf Club.

Bryant stormed into contention with a 10-under-par 62 on the final day, tying a course record. But with 178 yards to go as they played the 18th in the playoff, Bryant’s second shot hit pylons before bouncing into the water.

Both shot 16 under in regulation play.
