Retief Goosen has won the Transitions Championship, making a 5-foot par putt on the final hole at Innisbrook for a one-shot victory over Charles Howell III and Brett Quigley.

Goosen closed with a 1-under 70 for his first PGA Tour victory
since August 2005.

The two-time U.S. Open champion made an 18-foot eagle putt on
the 11th hole to take the lead, and the players chasing him
couldn't hold on at the tough Copperhead Course.

Tom Lehman, trying to become the seventh player in his 50s to
win on the PGA Tour, did not make a birdie until the 17th hole and
shot 75 to finished four shots behind.
