Richard Green has fallen painfully short of adding to Australia's run of recent golf winners, losing a playoff at the PGA Tour Champions event in the US.
American Harrison Frazar birdied the first extra hole to deny Green after both players finished at 11 under par at the $US2 million ($A3.2 million) Dominion Energy Charity Classic in Richmond, Virginia.
Green and Frazar both posted Sunday 69s with the Australian the only player to record three rounds in the 60s in the first of three legs of the Charles Schwab Cup Playoffs.
