Wed, 24 Jun 2009 07:18:52

LEVIS, Que. - Australian Geoff Ogilvy hit the jackpot on the 14th hole en route to winning the Telus World Skins Game on Tuesday.

Ogilvy pocketed C$150,000 of the $360,000 purse, while American Fred Couples finished second with four skins for $65,000.

Mike Weir of Bright's Grove, Ont., and England's Ian Poulter each walked away with two skins for $50,000 each and Spain's Sergio Garcia had three skins for $45,000.

The 18-hole event was packed into one day because of the rain delays that forced the final round of the U.S. Open to be played Monday.
