LUTZ, Fla. (AP) — Nick Price overcame three double bogeys in an up-and-down final-round 71 and won for the first time on the Champions Tour on Sunday.

After a par putt on the 18th hole, Price finished with a two-shot victory over Larry Nelson to end an 0-for-38 streak on the Champions Tour and win his first tournament since the 2002 MasterCard Colonial on the PGA TOUR, a span of 111 events.

The 52-year-old Price overcame his double-bogey barrage with seven birdies to shoot even par and finish at 9-under 204. Nelson shot a final-round 70 for a 7-under 206 total in the Outback Steakhouse Pro-Am at TPC Tampa Bay.
