Golf: Brooks wins Pebble Beach Invitational

Mark Brooks won the Callaway Golf Pebble Beach Invitational for a record third time, birdieing three of the last four holes Sunday for a 5-under 67 and a two-stroke victory over former Oklahoma State golfer Rickie Fowler and D.A. Points.

The 48-year-old Brooks, the 1996 PGA champion, had a 12-under 276 total and became the first three-time winner in the tournament's 38-year history. The seven-time PGA Tour winner also won the unofficial event in 1992 and 2002.

"I believe I had only four bogeys the entire week and two of those were on short putts," said Brooks, who had two bogeys and seven birdies Sunday, including a 16-footer on 18. "I kept the ball in the fairway and that's always been what I do best."

The 20-year-old Fowler closed with a 69, and Points birdied the final two holes en route a 65 — the best round of the day at Pebble Beach.
