American Ben Crane won the inaugural Asia Pacific Classic on Sunday, eagling the par-4 15th and making an 8-foot birdie putt on the final hole to beat England’s Brian Davis by a stroke.

Crane closed with a 2-under 69 at The Mines Resort to finish at 18 under and earned $1 million in the first US Tour-sanctioned event in Southeast Asia.

Davis got himself into contention by shooting a 66 in the final round, finishing birdie-eagle-birdie.

After making three straight bogeys to fall a stroke behind Laird, Crane drove the green on the 15th and holed his 8-foot eagle putt to regain the lead. Davis pulled even with his closing birdie, but Crane avoided a playoff with his winning birdie.

The slow-playing Crane won the Farmers Insurance Open in January at Torrey Pines for his third career PGA TOUR victory. The win Sunday in the 40-player event — also sanctioned by the Asian Tour — doesn’t count as an official PGA TOUR victory.

“I had a great opportunity with that putt (on 18) which I’ll always remember. I was so nervous and I was just praying. I just wanted to hit a good putt and to see it go into the hole. It felt so good,” said Crane.

“I just regrouped (after 14) and didn’t get ahead of myself. I knew I was still in the tournament. I hit an unbelievable shot on 15 with my driver and that kind of turned things around. It was an exciting turnaround. That was an unbelievable finish,” he said.
