Nelson captures 16th title on Seniors Tour
IN: News | Champions | SBC Championship (2001) | Wrap | 22 Oct 2001
Larry Nelson in just his fourth full season on Tour has now won sixteen events and amassed prize money of $US12,000,000 in that time.
His win at the SBC event in San Antonio was achieved with a stunning last round of 63, including a front nine of 30 to put paid to frontrunner Gary McCord who, despite a last round 67, was not able to match Nelson.
Nelson moves to 4th on the money list behind Doyle, Fleisher and Irwin. Disappointment for Graham Marsh who by virtue of his 28th place finish just failed to grab a spot in the top thirty for the end of season Tour Championship next week. The only Australian in that event will be Stewart Ginn who finished 28th on the money list. Bob Charles was 28th in San Antonio with Roger Davis 43rd and Stewart Ginn 62nd.
