Estes victorious in St.Jude Classic Bob Estes kept rivals at bay leading start to finish in the FedEx St. Jude Classic for his second PGA TOUR win. The golfer from Graham, Texas, tied with 61 for the lead in the first round at Southwind, claiming the victory with an even-par 71 Sunday. The victory ended a tournament drought since the 1994 Texas Open. Estes looked like he might win going away after turning a one-stroke lead over John Daly and Scott McCarron into a four-stroke margin through 13 holes. Daly finished fifth with a 2-over 73 and McCarron had one-over 72 to tied for third with Tom Lehman. Bernhard Langer was the only man to pose a threat to Estes. The European made six birdies and bogeyed one. He finished with a total 268 one stroke within Estes. Ben Bates closed with a 7-under-par 64. The 64 was his best round since shooting a 62 on July 8, 1999 at the Greater Milwaukee Open. - Final results: .1. Bob Estes (USA) 267 (61-66-69-71) .2. Bernhard Langer (GER) 268 (69-65-68-66) .3.
