Senior Edged Out in Playoff


Peter Senior has finished runner-up on the US Champions Tour for the 3rd time this season after losing out in a 4-way playoff at the Songdo IBD Championship in Korea.

Senior stormed his way up the leaderboard and into the playoff with a brilliant bogey-free final round of 8-under par 64! Senior joined Mark O'Meara, John Cook and Jay Don Blake in a sudden-death playoff after all four finished the tournament 13-under par. Senior was edged out of the playoff together with O'Meara on the 3rd hole before Jay Don Blake birdied the 5th extra hole to clinch the title from John Cook.

This continues what has been a very impressive 2011 Champions Tour campaign for Senior, with ten top 10 finishes now placing him 3rd on the Charles Schwab Cup rankings. Senior has now collected US$1,240,429.00 in prizemoney this season.

While disappointing for Pete to once again come so close to a maiden Champions Tour victory...it was another terrific performance and keeps him well in the hunt for the Charles Schwab Cup!
