Johnson denies Davis after record round

ZACH JOHNSON’S record-breaking performance denied England’s Brian Davis victory at the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Fort Worth on Sunday.

Davis was on course to secure his first PGA Tour title as he held a one-shot lead at the halfway stage of the final round in Texas. He birdied the first, second, sixth and seventh with a bogey at the par-four fifth the only blemish on his outward nine as he moved to 19 under.

However, he was one over par on the back nine, bogeying the 18th, to allow Johnson to steal in for a three- stroke victory, with his total of 21-under setting a tournament record.
