 | | Lyle was striking it so well, in fact, he won, outlasting Jeff Sluman on the third playoff hole. |
 | | Lyle, the 1985 British Open champion, and Sluman were two and three shots back, respectively, when play began on Sunday. |
 | | Ultimately, the tournament boiled down to Lyle, who drained a 30- to 40-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole to finish at 14-under 274, and Sluman, who matched Lyle's salvo with his own 12-footer to force the playoff. |
