Choi hangs on to win Sony Open by 3 shots

K.J. Choi struggled to a one over par 71 yet managed to fend off the field for a wire to wire win in Honolulu yesterday. His 64-65-66 scores during the 1st 3 days of play gave him the cushion he need to maintain hold off a late charge by South African big mouth Rory Sabbatini who took sole 2nd with an 11 under. Jerry Kelly was one behind big mouth to finish alone in third.

Tattoo Golf Fun fact - K.J. was the first Sony Open champion in 41 years to card a final round over par.
