You may still remember Adam Scott's first PGA Tour title in 2008. Now, in the year of 2010, he eyes his second PGA Tour title in the Valero Texas Open. Although more than two years later, it is a great triumph for Scott.
Du to heavy rain and a tornado warning, part of Friday's play was put off on Sunday.
And Scott responded superbly with rounds of 66 and 67 to post a total of 14 under par and one-shot winning margin from Sweden's Fredrik Jacobson.
The 29-year-old from Adelaide faced an anxious wait after a bogey on the 72nd hole, where he fired his approach into a greenside bunker and missed a short putt for par(putter recommend: Titleist Scotty Cameron Detour New Port 2 Putter).
But Jacobson was unable to birdie the same hole to force a play-off and Scott held on for the win.
"It was a long old day but when you get hot it's good to play 36 holes sometimes," Scott said.
"Obviously it wasn't the greatest finish but I played really well after being one under for the tournament after three holes this morning.
"On the last putt I was playing it straight and pulled it a touch, it was a bit of a disaster."
Jacobson carded rounds of 65 and 70 to finish alone in second on 13 under, with Aaron Baddeley and Ernie Els another stroke back in a share of third.
