Waterford's Seamus Power won his first PGA Tour title in dramatic style last night when claiming the Barbasol Championship after a sudden death play-off.

The 34-year-old edged out J.T. Poston on the sixth play-off hole at the Keene Trace Golf Club in Nicholasville, Kentucky. Poston squandered a three-stroke lead on the back nine and then lost on the sixth playoff hole when he hit his tee shot into the water on the par-4 18th.
