HONOLULU -- Grayson Murray stuffed a wedge to 3 feet for birdie on the 18th hole for a 3-under 67 to join a three-way playoff and then won the Sony Open with a 40-foot birdie putt to set himself up for a potentially lucrative year.
Murray felt like a renewed person even before starting the season in Hawaii. He says he has been sober for eight months.
But the win -- his first in more than six years -- came at an ideal time.
The victory not only gets him in the Masters for the first time, Murray now has a spot in the $20 million signature events the rest of the season.
As big as the win was for Murray, it was a tough loss for Byeong Hun An and Keegan Bradley.
