David Howell has won his first title in seven years by beating Peter Uihlein on the second hold of a playoff at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in Scotland.
The 38-year-old, who last tasted victory at the BMW Championship in May 2006, shot 67 on his final trip around St Andrews, which tied the American on 23-under-par.
Both men started with pars at the first playoff hole, but a 10-foot putt for birdie on the 18th saw Howell clinch his fifth victory on the European Tour.
Shane Lowry and Tom Lewis finished tied for third on 22-under par, while Tommy Fleetwood finished a shot further back in sixth.
