Dufner claims dramatic Texas win

Jason Dufner has clinched the Byron Nelson Championship in Texas after a dramatic one-shot victory on the final hole.

Having led overnight, the American landed a 25-foot put on the 18th green to beat fellow countryman Dickie Pride to the title on 11-under-par.

"I just had a really good feel for that putt and I've been in a couple of play-offs and I kind of wanted to close this one out and not get in another play-off," said Dufner.

The triumph caps a memorable month for the 35-year-old, who claimed his first ever PGA Tour title in New Orleans at the end of April.
