Doyle wins Senior Slam

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., Nov. 11 (UPI) -- Allen Doyle added another achievement to his incredible season Sunday, holding off Tom Watson to win the Senior Slam.

Doyle entered the day with a three-shot lead and ended it two strokes ahead of Watson at 10-under-par 134. He carded his second straight 5-under 67.

Watson finished at 8-under 136 with Bruce Fleisher at 137 and Doug Tewell at 138. The tournament invites the four major winners from the Senior Tour season.

Doyle qualified with a win at the Senior Players Championship in July. He only claimed one other official event this season but had 25 top-10 finishes in 34 starts.

Four straight top-four showings late in the season helped Doyle to a tour-high $2.553 million and the inaugural $1 million Charles Schwab Cup bonus, which he donated to charity.

This event took place at the Slammer & Squire course at the World Golf Village, which also was the site of Sunday's Hall of Fame inductions.
