Cook successfully defends AT&T Championship

Golf Betting Lines

10/26/2008 - San Antonio, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - John Cook fired a six-under-par 65 on Sunday to come from behind and successfully defend his title at the AT&T Championship.

Cook finished the tournament at 16-under 197 at Oak Hills Country Club and won the event by three shots over Keith Fergus.

Cook became the second player in tournament history to win two in a row. Jim Albus turned the trick in 1994-95 and these two victories are Cook's only wins on the Champions Tour.

Fergus also posted a 65 on Sunday. He took second place at 13-under 200, which was one shot better than John Morse (63) and Jay Haas (66).

Cook began the final round only one shot behind overnight leader Jeff Sluman, but thanks to an early collapse from Sluman, Cook was immediately thrust into the lead.

Cook bogeyed one, then birdied two and was tied atop the leaderboard. After birdies at the fourth and fifth, Cook found himself two clear of several players.

Haas made a strong move at Cook's lead and after an eagle at the 10th, the two shared first. Cook grabbed the top spot after a birdie at eight, and Haas fell down the leaderboard after a bogey at the 13th.

Morse became the next contender to match Cook in first after seven birdies and an eagle at 15. Cook once again handled the challenge and, with a 25-foot birdie putt at the 10th, reclaimed first place to himself.

Morse bogeyed the last to fall two back, but Fergus knocked his tee ball to three feet. Fergus tapped in for birdie and was only one behind until Cook birdied the par-five 15th.

Cook was two up with two to play and padded his cushion. At the par-four 17th, Cook played his approach to 10 feet and holed the birdie putt to take a comfortable three-shot lead to the par-three closing hole.

Cook knocked his tee ball safely inside 40 feet. He lagged to two feet and kicked in the short par save for the three-shot victory.

Sluman only managed an even-par 71 on Sunday. He tied for fifth place with Bruce Fleisher (69) and Mark James (70) at 11-under-par 202.

Joey Sindelar (63), Scott Simpson (68), Gene Jones (69) and Dan Forsman (71) shared eighth place at minus-nine.
