Spain's Miguel Angel Jimenez became the third oldest winner of the PGA Championship when he beat Briton Oliver Wilson at the second hole of a playoff at Wentworth on Sunday. Jimenez, helped by a hole-in-one, fired a four-under-par 68 to join Wilson (68) on 11-under-par 277 at the end of the regulation 72 holes. Wilson came close to winning the European Tour's flagship event when his eight-foot putt lipped out at the first extra hole. The duo walked back to the tee to play the par-five 18th for the second time in the playoff. This time the 27-year-old Englishman drove his ball into the right rough while Jimenez reached the green in two and safely two putted from 25 feet for a winning birdie. The 44-year-old Spaniard became the third oldest PGA champion behind the 46-year-old Dai Rees (1959) and the 45-year-old Arnold Palmer (1975). India's Jyoti Randhawa (70) was fifth on 280. Mickelson regains control In Texas, Phil Mickelson coolly sank an 18-foot birdie putt at the last to regain a one-shot lead after a low-scoring third round at the Colonial Invitational Saturday. A stroke in front overnight, former champion Mickelson overcame a shaky start with a brilliant display of shot-making on his way to a five-under-par 65. Seeking his 34th PGA Tour title, the American world number two ended a sweltering day at Colonial Country Club by posting a 12-under total of 198. His birdie on the 18th green edged him ahead of Australian Rod Pampling (63) and Canada's Stephen Ames (64) who both held the outright lead during the third round. South African Tim Clark was a further two strokes back in fourth after carding a six-birdie 64. Jang shares LPGA lead In New York, Jeong Jang fired a second straight three-under 69 Saturday to seize a share of the third-round lead at the LPGA Corning Classic alongside Erica Blasberg. Blasberg, the first-round leader with a sizzling 65 on Thursday, carded a 70 as she rebounded from a disappointing 74 on Friday. The leading duo were on seven-under 209, one stroke in front of Australian Katherine Hull and American Leta Lindley. Hull posted a 68 and Lindley a 70 for 210, with South Korean Song-Hee Kim a further shot back after a 70 for 211.
