Strong finish seals title for Ames

Stephen Ames collected his first title in more than a year and a half by shooting a four-under-par 68 in the final round of the Children’s Miracle Network Classic at Lake Buena Vista in Florida today.

The Canadian came away with his first title since the Players Championship in March 2006 by clinging to a one-shot advantage following three straight birdies beginning at the 13th.
