Germany pip Scots in WGC play-off
German pair Bernhard Langer and Marcel Siem held their nerve to beat Scottish duo Colin Montgomerie and Marc Warren in a play-off to claim the World Cup.
Both teams finished on 16 under par after 72 holes to set up a thrilling finale at a soaked Sandy Lane course.
Montgomerie holed a clutch par putt at 18 to take the event to sudden death.
Both Langer and Montgomerie then missed the green with their tee shots but Siem's chip left Langer a tap-in while Montgomerie missed from 5ft to bogey.
It was Germany and Langer's second World Cup win, the first coming in 1990 when the Ryder Cup veteran partnered Torsten Gideon to victory in Florida.
The 49-year-old Langer was making his first appearance in the event since 1996 but came into the week in form after partnering his 16-year-old son Stefan to victory in a father/son tournament in Orlando last week.
