EDMONTON, Alberta (AP)—James Hahn won the Edmonton Open on Sunday for hisfirst Canadian Tour victory, beating Canadian Jim Rutledge with a two-putt paron the first hole of a playoff at Glendale Golf and Country Club.
Hahn, a 27-year-old former University of California player, closed with a6-under 66 to match Rutledge (66) at 16-under 272. Hahn earned $20,661.
“There is an unreal feeling about all of this,” Hahn said. “I came outhere last year and gave myself two or three years before I thought I would evenstart contending. I didn’t expect a win to come so soon although you dream aboutit all the time.”
Canadians Andrew Parr (68) and Graham DeLaet (70) tied for third at 14under.
