HILTON HEAD, S.C., April 20 (UPI) -- Boo Weekley sank two shots from off greens, shot an even-par 71 and won the Heritage Classic Sunday for the second year in a row.

Weekley finished with a 15-under-par 269 for a three-shot edge over Aaron Baddeley and Anthony Kim.

The champion had led by three entering the final round.

"I reckon everyone else must have struggled a little bit today," Weekley said.

Kim had started the round in second-place and ended up with his second top-five finish of the season after carding a 71. Baddeley shot a closing 69.

Jim Furyk also posted a 69 to finish fourth at 11-under 273.

Cliff Kresge was fifth and Jason Bohn sixth.
