Weir alright to take Nissan Open
Mike Weir carded a final-round level-par 71 to hold off a spirited late challenge from Shigeki Maruyama and defend his title at the Nissan Open in California.
The Canadian left-hander had a seven-shot lead over Maruyama when he birdied the third hole but the Japanese golfer chipped away before finally catching Weir at 17 under with a birdie at the 166-yard 16th hole.
