Beckman wins Mayakoba Golf Classic

Cameron Beckman won the Mayakoba Golf Classic for his third PGA Tour title, closing with a 3-under 67 on Sunday for a two-stroke victory over third-round leader Joe Durant and Brian Stuard.

The 40-year-old Beckman, three strokes behind Durant at the start of play Sunday, finished at 15-under 269 on the Mayakoba Resort's El Camaleon course. Beckman also won the 2001 Southern Farm Bureau Classic and 2008 Frys.com Open.

"I started off well. I parred the first and birdied the next two and kind of got going a little bit," Beckman said. "I was really uncomfortable off the tee today, and I chipped and putted really well. That's pretty much what got the tournament won for me."
