Reid sinks a big one
Updated: August 21, 2010, 1:33 AM
SUNRIVER, Ore. — Mike Reid made a 12-foot birdie putt on the first playoff hole Sunday to beat John Cook and win the Jeld-Wen Tradition for his second career major on the Champions Tour.
Reid raised both hands and let out a deep sigh before humbly removing his cap and shaking Cook’s hand at Crosswater Golf Club in central Oregon.
Reid has won just twice on the Champions Tour, both majors. He also won the 2005 Senior PGA Championship.
Cook’s approach shot on the playoff hole, No. 18, came to rest about 15 feet away and his downhill putt for birdie missed.
Reid shot a final-round 70 and Cook had a 69 to finish at 16-under 272.
