MEMPHIS - Harrison Frazar won his first PGA Tour title in his 355th tournament, beating Robert Karlsson with a par on the third hole of a sudden-death playoff Sunday at the St. Jude Classic.
Frazar won a month before turning 40 when Karlsson pushed a par-saving putt three feet past the hole. Now he has the biggest paycheck of his career, taking home $1,008,000. He shot a 3-under 67 to match Karlsson (68) at 13 under.
Frazar became the seventh first-time winner on tour this year and the first to win his first title in Memphis since Dicky Pride in 1994.
