Darren Clarke birdies 72nd hole to win Senior Open Championship at Gleneagles Hotel Kings Course

Darren Clarke stalked the upcoming shot, seeking to determine what exactly he wanted to do

The Northern Irishmen changed into sitting just off the green on his

72nd hollow of the Senior Open Championship at Gleneagles hotel

Kings path in Auchterarder, Scotland. Clarke and Padraig Harrington were tied

on the leaderboard, but if Clarke discovered a manner to birdie the final hole

he might be triumphant. Heavy rains brought on disruptions to the very last round,

so Clarke needed to determine whether or not to putt from the green short of the

par-5 18th or to chip it. He went with a putter, and it became a top notch preference
