Woody Austin made a 6-foot birdie putt on the first playoff hole to beat Tim Herron and win the Buick Championship in Cromwell, Conn.

Austin shot a 4-under-par 66 and finished 10 under in regulation for his second career victory and first in 274 events. The former bank teller earned $756,000 for the win, his first since the 1995 Buick Open.

Austin had a chance to win the tournament on the final hole of regulation, but flew his approach about 80 feet past the pin and made a bogey on the 444-yard 18th..
