Watney triumphs in Malaysia

American Nick Watney ended an eventful week in Malaysia with a brilliant 61 and a one-stroke victory at the CIMB Classic today, leaving Tiger Woods in joint fourth place after he closed with a 63.

Watney’s opening 71 finished with his wife Amber carrying the bag after his caddie suffered heatstroke, but from eight strokes behind at that point the 31-year-old powered his way back, and even had a chance to round things off with a 59.
