KAPALUA, Hawaii, Jan. 10 (UPI) -- Geoff Ogilvy shot a 6-under-par 67 Sunday and won the PGA Tour's season-opening SBS Championship in Hawaii for the second straight year.

Ogilvy ended up at 22-under 270, a shot ahead of Rory Sabbatini, who fired a final-round 63 on the Plantation Course at Kapalua.

The 32-year-old Ogilvy, from Australia, has won seven times on the tour.

Matt Kuchar (67) finished third at 273 and Sean O'Hair (68), who double-bogyed the last hole, and Martin Laird (70) tied for fourth at 274.

Lucas Glover, the leader after each of the first three rounds, slipped to a 3-over 76 and ended up in a tie for 14th place.

The tournament is for players who won events in the previous season.

"Now I get to come back," Ogilvy said.
