Jimenez edges Langer by 1 for Senior Open title

Golf

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland — Miguel Angel Jimenez won the Senior Open Championship on Sunday, edging defending champion Bernhard Langer by one shot.

Jimenez dropped only 1 stroke en route to a final round 3-under 69 and ended on 12-under 276 at the historic Old Course.

The Spaniard played the sort of round every professional golfer dreams of on the final day at St. Andrews, and often in unpleasant — occasionally vicious — weather conditions.

Langer shot a 68 to come second.

Americans Kirk Triplett (69) and Scott McCarron (68) tied for third alongside Canada’s Stephen Ames (69). All three finished on 10 under.
