Stanley's 8-shot rally nets Phoenix win

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Feb. 5 (UPI) -- Kyle Stanley rallied from eight shots back Sunday, firing a 6-under-par 65 to claim an improbable first career victory in the Phoenix Open.

Stanley charged past third-round leader Spencer Levin and edged Ben Crane by a single stroke, finishing at 15-under-par 269 to claim his initial PGA Tour win.

Stanley missed racking up his first win last week at Torrey Pines when he blew an eight-stroke lead in the final round.

Crane logged a 5-under 66 at the TPC Scottsdale to take second at minus-14.

Levin began the day with a six-stroke lead but dropped four strokes on the back nine, falling out of the lead. He stumbled to a 4-over 75, hanging on to sole possession of third at 13-under 271.
