"But I guess the key thing is that I got through, which is all that mattered."Sims' final round included two birdies, two bogeys and a double bogey at the par 3, 15th hole.He completed the 72-hole tournament at four-under-par 284 along with four other golfers.Australian Daniel Nisbet (264) won this week's tournament in Texas by a commanding 12 shots over nearest rival Robert Lopez (276).
