Maggert wins Matchplay
AGENCE FRANCE PRESSE
CARLSBAD (US), MARch 1: In a gruelling tournament that produced a final between a pair of forgotten golfers, Jeff Maggert captured the inaugural Matchplay Golf Championship with a million-dollar shot to remember.On the second hole of sudden death and the 146th of the event, Maggert chipped in from 17 feet to defeat Andrew Magee and capture the US$ 1 million first prize.The event was the first of four in the new World Golf Championships Series, bringing together the best players based on the official World Golf Rankings.Magee missed a 35-foot Birdie putt and was about two feet away when Maggert chose to chip from just off the fringe. His shot had a lot of pace and rimmed around the cup before dropping in. Copyright © 1999 Indian Express Newspapers (Bombay) Ltd.
