November 24, 2013. Jason Day made a 7-foot par-saving putt on the 16th hole while Thomas Bjorn bogeyed as the Australian won his first tournament in nearly three years at the ISPS HANDA World Cup of Golf at Royal Melbourne.

 

Day’s closing 70 left him with a 10-under total of 274, two-strokes ahead of Bjorn (71).

 

“I’m just glad I held on,” Day said.

 

Adam Scott finished third after a 66, three strokes behind. Scott, trying to win his third tournament in a row, shot 75 on the opening day, including a 9 on the 12th hole, and spent the rest of the tournament trying to catch up.
