Jim Furyk won the Verizon Heritage at Harbour Town Golf Links, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina at the first extra hole in a play-off with his final round playing partner, England's Brain Davis. The pair tied on 13-under-par 271 and Furyk prevailed with a par 4 after Davis found the Calibogue Sound with his second shot and then incurred a two-stroke penalty with his recovery after touching a loose impediment with his club on the backswing. Furyk moves up a spot to World Number Five and Davis breaks into the World Top 100 in 98th position.
