RICHMOND, Va. -- Scott McCarron came into the season with a goal of winning the Charles Schwab Cup Championship.He put himself in position to do just that Sunday in the Dominion Charity Classic, making a 6-foot putt on the first hole of a playoff with Tom Byrum to win the second of three PGA Tour Champions playoff events. McCarron will start next week in Scottsdale, Arizona, second in points to two-time defending champion Bernhard Langer with the cup on the line.I think its awesome. Bernhard Langers had a great year, a phenomenal year, one of the best years ever, but its a playoff. Youve got to play well in the playoffs, McCarron said, who moved into the top five in the rankings by finishing sixth last week in California. If I can play well next week, I control my own destiny.The three-time PGA Tour champion won the Principal Charity Classic in Iowa in June for his first senior victory.Any time you win an event, youve got a lot of good feelings about your game, youre playing well. To win in a playoff in the fashion I did just gives you a lot of confidence, he said. For me, going into next week, again, Im second in the Schwab Cup, and if I can win, I can win the Schwab Cup, which I think is amazing.McCarron, one of the longest hitters on the tour for players 50 and older, did most of his scoring on the longest holes.I thought that if I could take advantage of the par 5s, I could possibly have a great tournament, and I certainly did that for most of the week, he said.For the season, McCarron has had birdie or better on 54 percent of par 5s. This week, be birdied nine out of 13, including the playoff hole.McCarron and Byrum each shot 3-under 69 in regulation to finish at 13 under on the James River Course at The Country Club of Virginia. Byrum created the tie with a birdie at the 16th hole. Both made pars on the next two holes before McCarrons winning putt on the extra hole gave him his second victory this season.Byrum, seeking his first victory in a PGA Tour-sanctioned event since the 1989 Kemper Open, putted first, but his 15-foot putter slid past on the left edge. McCarron then rolled a slightly bending putt into the center of the cup.I hit that putt just like I wanted, said Byrum, who left soon after the loss to catch a plane. I thought I made it.McCarron had missed a birdie putt on the 54th and final hole of regulation to necessitate the playoff.Kevin Sutherland shot a course-record 63, with seven birdies and an eagle, to tie for third with Brandt Jobe (67) at 11 under.Fred Funk was alone in fifth at 10 under. He closed with four consecutive birdies for a 67.Sutherland also challenged for a coveted top five-spot in Scottsdale. But he needed McCarron to falter and, when the 51-year-old did not, Sutherland wound up sixth in the standings.The points were reset after the event, so that the top five -Langer, McCarron, Colin Montgomerie, Joe Durant and Miguel Angel Jimenez -- only have to win the season finale at Desert Mountain to capture the Charles Schwab Cup.Langer, who played despite a sore knee that kept him out of last weeks tournament, would have locked up the championship weeks ago because of his huge lead in the player standings, but the first-year format means he has to play to claim the title. He shot a 71 on Sunday to tie for sixth at 9 under.Glad I played. I know what to work on, a couple of things that werent firing, said Langer, who also won the Cup in 2010 and was the dominant player on the circuit this season. Spend the next few days working on that and hopefully be ready next week.Each dollar earned Sunday was worth two points -- McCarron earned $305,000 worth 610,000 -- and was added to the regular-season total.---Follow Hank on Twitter: www.twitter.com/hankkurzjr http://www.eaglesrookiestore.com/Customized/ .

Although Simon Church gave the Dons a fourth minute lead, the Edinburgh side weathered an early onslaught before hitting back to keep alive their slim chances of securing second spot in the Scottish Premiership table.The visitors opened the scoring when Church stretched out a leg to clip the ball past keeper Neil Alexander at the near post, following Graeme Shinnies cross. And they should have doubled their advantage three minutes later when Niall McGinn failed to convert Kenny McLeans cross, with only Alexander to beat from three yards. Aberdeens Simon Church clips the ball past Hearts keeper Neil Alexander as the Dons open the scoring at Tynecastle Within 60 seconds Alexander denied McGinn from a tight angle, while an unmarked Shaleum Logan headed straight at the home keeper as Aberdeen threatened to run amok during the opening 12 minutes.At the other end, Scott Brown saved brilliantly as he pushed away Blazej Augustyns eight-yard header. Juanma levels matters after 32 minutes Brown then touched over Alim Ozturks looping free-kick but the visiting keeper was probably at fault as Hearts levelled matters on 32.From Ozturks low 30-yard strike, Brown could only parry the ball into the path of the unmarked Juanma who had the simple task of finding the bottom left-hand corner of the net from the edge of the six-yard box.ddddddddddddHearts came close to taking lead eight minutes into the second half when Logan slipped in the box but, from six yards, Prince Buaben could only scoop the chance over the bar under pressure from keeper Brown. Aberdeen skipper Ryan Jack is carried off late in the first half And shortly afterwards the hosts came close again as Igor Rossi drove the ball against a post from 20 yards.The second Jambos goal duly arrived on the hour when the visitors fell victim to the pace of Jamie Walker who sped down the left before crossing for Juanma to clinically nod the ball past Brown from seven yards.McGinn, who missed a couple excellent chances early in the first half, was wasteful again in the 70th minute as Aberdeen vainly chased an equaliser. Prince Buaben scoops over early in the second half As the game opened up during the closing stages, both sides enjoyed plenty of the ball without creating much in the way of clear cut chances.Derek McInness side appeared to run out of ideas as the home defence coped easily with each and every tired Dons attack.The result leaves Aberdeen five points adrift of Celtic who have one game in hand and just six more to play.
