GRAND BLANC, Mich. — Kenny Perry joined a short list of multiple champions at the 50th Buick Open.

Perry shot a 6-under-par 66 on Sunday to finish at 19-under 269, one shot better than Woody Austin, who blew the tournament and $900,000 by bogeying the last two holes, and Bubba Watson, who missed a 12-footer on the 18th.

Vijay Singh has three victories at the Buick Open. Tiger Woods, Julius Boros, Tony Lema and Perry have two.

Perry, who won in 2001 at Warwick Hills, has 11 victories on the PGA Tour, including the Memorial earlier this month, and has likely locked up a spot on the Ryder Cup team that will face Europe in his home state of Kentucky.

Austin and Watson shot 68s. Bob Tway (65), Ken Duke (67) and Matt Jones (67) finished another stroke behind.

Footnotes.

Loren Roberts made a 29-foot, double- breaking birdie putt on the par-5 17th hole that put him in front by two strokes at the Commerce Bank Championship in East Meadow, N.Y., and he went on to his first Champions Tour victory of the year.

• Spanish rookie Pablo Larrazabal won the French Open in Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines for his first European Tour victory, closing with a 4-under 67 to beat Colin Montgomerie (68) by four strokes.
