Carl Pettersson carded a one-under 71 here on Sunday to complete a comfortable two-shot victory in the PGA Tour's 5.5 million-dollar Memorial tournament.
The North Carolina-based Swede bogeyed the final hole, but it couldn't mar his impressive victory over a field that include six of the top seven players in the world.
Pettersson captured his second US tour victory with a 12-under total for 276, following up his breakthrough victory in Tampa, Florida, last October.
Brett Wetterich (67) and Zach Johnson (70) tied for second at 10-under 278, with Masters champion Phil Mickelson (70), Australian Adam Scott (69) and Brandt Jobe (67) another shot back.
Scott missed a three-foot putt at the final hole that cost him a share of second place.
