Jordan Spieth wins RBC Heritage golf tournament after playoff on Hilton Head

Jordan Spieth won the RBC Heritage on Hilton Head after a one-hole playoff when he blasted a shot out of a bunker within inches of the hole to claim his second PGA Tour event on an Easter Sunday.

After 18 holes of golf in the fourth round at Harbour Town Golf Links, three-time major winner Spieth was tied with Patrick Cantlay, a six-time PGA Tour winner, at 13 under par.

Both players ended up in bunkers around the green on the first playoff hole, the 18th, but Spieth hit a spectacular shot out of the sand and tapped in for par for the win, while Cantlay was left with a long putt for par that he missed.
