KEYS TO VICTORY<br />
Tom Watson sank a 20-foot birdie putt on the<br />
18th hole to rally from a six-stroke deficit in the<br />
final round to win. Starting the day six strokes<br />
behind third-round leader Jay Haas, Watson<br />
closed with an 8-under 64, the lowest round ever<br />
by a winner in this event. Poor putting did in Haas,<br />
who needed 32 putts and made three bogeys<br />
Sunday, one more than he had made in his first<br />
three rounds combined. Watson, meanwhile, made<br />
10 birdies on Sunday and needed just 26 putts on<br />
the way to his 64. After a bogey on No. 7, Watson<br />
made seven birdies and just one bogey over the<br />
final 11 holes. The win was Watson’s third in this<br />
event and also earned Watson the Charles Schwab<br />
Cup title, symbolic of the points leader in the<br />
season-long race.<br />
