| The American golfer Phil Nichelson has successfully defended his title at the Buick Invitational tournament in California. 美国高尔夫球手菲尔·尼切尔森在加利福尼亚举行的别克邀请赛中卫冕成功。 The event led to a three-way play-off but it wasn't an impressive finish. Davis Love was eliminated on the second extra hole leaving Nichelson and Frank Lickliter in the playoff. 这场赛事最后是三方决赛，但结局并不吸引人。戴维斯·洛弗在加洞赛第二洞中被淘汰出局，剩下尼切尔森和弗兰克·李克利特两人决赛。 Nichelson looked to have thrown it away when he hooked his tee shot into the trees but his rival then did exactly the same. 当尼切尔森把他的球座击到树丛中的时候，他看起来已经放弃了，但他的对手跟着亦同样如此。 Nichelson made another mistake at the same hole and Lickliter had a chance for his first title but he sent his bogey putt past the hole and missed the return as well to hand Nichelson the title for the third time. 尼切尔森在同一洞中又犯了一个错误，李克利特有机会获得第一次胜利，但他把轻易入洞得分的球击过了洞口，错过了回球，同时第三次将冠军头衔拱手相让给尼切尔森。 |
