John Huh claimed a dramatic victory at the Mayakoba Golf Classic after a marathon eight-hole play-off with Robert Allenby.
Huh had posted an eagle and six birdies en route to a final-round eight-under-par and was two shots behind leader Allenby on 13-under overall when he signed his scorecard.
But the Australian double-bogeyed his final hole to let the American back in.
The two couldn't be separated and went blow-for-blow in the play-off until Allenby finally cracked at the eighth extra hole when he found a hazard and couldn't save par.
That allowed the 21-year-old to tap in for his first career PGA Tour victory and settle the second-longest play-off in PGA Tour history.
