Stanley wins in Phoenix as Levin collapses By Associated Press Feb 5, 2012 7:13 PM ET SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - Kyle Stanley rebounded from a devastating loss to win the Phoenix Open, overcoming an eight-stroke deficit Sunday in a comeback as unlikely as his collapse last week at Torrey Pines. In tears seven days ago in San Diego after blowing a big lead뾡ropping the final strokes with a triple-bogey 8 on the final hole뾞nd losing a playoff, Stanley took advantage of Spencer Levin뭩 meltdown Sunday to win his first PGA Tour title. 밒뭢 not sure what I뭢 thinking right now,?Stanley said. 밒 just needed to focus on playing golf. I needed to put last week behind me.? He cried again, this time tears of joy. 밒 just want to thank my mom and dad. They뭭e done a lot for me. I뭢 speechless,?Stanley said in the scoring area moments after the victory. Ben Crane had a 66 to finish a stroke back. Levin, six strokes ahead entering the round and seven in front after one hole, shot a 75 to finish two strokes behind Stanley. 밒 just didn뭪 have it,?Levin said. 밠aybe I was looking ahead too much and trying too hard. What are you going to do? I tried my best.? The 24-year-old Stanley, the long-hitting former Clemson star from Gig Harbor, Wash., birdied the par-5 13th and par-4 14th to take a one-stroke lead at 15 under. Levin, winless on the PGA Tour, birdied the 14th to regain a share of the lead but dropped back with a double-bogey 7 on the par-5 15th. 밒 really feel for him,?Stanley said. 밳ou don뭪 want to wish that on anyone. He뭩 a very good player. ?I feel bad for him.? Stanley parred the final three holes, playing a great recovery shot from under a cactus to the right of the short par-4 17th. He birdied Nos. 2, 3, 8, 9 and 11 to get to 13 under and within three strokes of the faltering Levin. Levin birdied No. 4 to reach 18 under but bogeyed Nos. 4 and 6 and dropped two more strokes on Nos. 11 and 12 to let Stanley into the mix. 밒 don뭪 really know,?Levin said. 밒 felt all right early.? Last week at Torrey Pines, Stanley led by seven shots early in the final round and still had a four-shot lead as he stood on the tee at the par-5 18th. But his third shot had too much spin and didn뭪 get high enough on the green, spinning quickly down the slope and into the water. He three-putted from 45 feet for the triple bogey, then lost to Brandt Snedeker on the second playoff hole when his five-foot par putt caught the right edge of the cup. Did this victory erase last week? 밡ot really,?Stanley said. 밒뭢 never going to forget that.? D.J. Trahan had a 66 to finish fourth at 12 under, and Brendan Steele (64) was another stroke back along with Kevin Na (65) and Bubba Watson (70). Phil Mickelson shot a 73 to tie for 26th at 6 under. 밒 felt good,?the former Arizona State star said. 밒 just couldn뭪 quite get it going.?
