Here is the story filed by PGATour.com staff from the Nationwide Tour stop on Alex Prugh's victory Sunday (late Saturday in Washington):
ARROWTOWN, New Zealand -- Washington's Alex Prugh felt right at home amid the mountains and lakes of New Zealand and his relaxed nature helped him earn his first career win Sunday. Prugh's blistering back-nine 30 contributed to an 8-under 64 that pushed him to a three-stroke win at the Michael Hill New Zealand Open.
Prugh, a 24-year old from Spokane, raced past the international field to finish at 19-under 269 and lead the American contingent to a 1-2-3 sweep on the Nationwide Tour's final stop of a three-tourney swing Down Under.
"If anything, this builds a lot of confidence for me," said Prugh, who collected $108,000 for the win. "The last time I felt nerves like that might have been at the Pacific Coast Amateur in 2005 but there were no leader boards there and we were playing in front of 30 people, not the thousands we had out here. I definitely thought I'd be more nervous coming down the stretch."
The second-year pro becomes the first American to win the New Zealand Open Championship since Corey Pavin, who captured back-to-back titles in 1984-85. The tournament dates back to 1907 but this was the first time it was a co-sanctioned event between the Australasian and Nationwide Tours.
