JUPITER, Fla. – Albin Choi of Toronto, Canada, birdied the first extra hole Wednesday for his first victory on the Minor League Golf Tour. Choi and Dan McCarthy of Syracuse, NY, tied at six under par 66 on the Fazio course at Jonathan’s Landing Golf Club at Old Trail. Choi hit his approach on the par-4 playoff hole to six feet of the cup. After McCarthy chipped from just short of the green to a foot and a half, Choi sank his winning putt.

In regulation, McCarthy finished about half an hour ahead of Choi with birdies at the 17th and 18th holes, carding seven birdies and a bogey overall. Then Choi finished with bogeys at the 16th and 18th hole to set up the playoff. Earlier in the round, Choi eagled the par-4 seventh hole and added six birdies.

It was Choi’s fourth MLGT start, his first this year after playing on the Web.com Tour most of the season. He earned $882, including a $600 share of the $3,070 purse, $232 from an optional bonus pool and $50 in skins. McCarthy first joined the MLGT in October, 2007. He won 46 times here before claiming four victories in 2016 on the Mackenzie PGA Tour Canada. He advanced to the Web.com but missed most of the ’17 season because of a wrist injury. He received $480 Wednesday, raising his career earnings here to $140,755.

Jhared Hack made a hole in one with a 7 iron on the par-3 16th hole.
