DULUTH, Ga. (AP) \u2014 Retief Goosen won the PGA TOUR Champion’s Mitsubishi Electric Classic on Sunday at TPC Sugarloaf, 24 years after he took the PGA TOUR’s BellSouth Classic on the course.<\/p>\n

Goosen closed with a 14-point round under the modified Stableford scoring system to beat Stephen Ames by two points. The 57-year-old South African won for the fifth time in 150 starts on the Champions Tour.<\/p>\n

Goosen birdied the par-5 18th to finish with 39 points. He also won the PGA TOUR’s 2005 International under the scoring system that was used for the first time in the Champions Tour event.<\/p>\n
