Baddeley wins first Mastercard Masters on fourth playoff hole

Two weeks ago, Aaron Baddeley told Fox Sports that the two tournaments he hoped to Aaron_baddeley_mastercard_masters_cwin this upcoming season were the Masters and Australian Open.  One of those wishes came true yesterday, when Baddeley won the Mastercard Masters in Australia for the first time.  Baddeley trailed Daniel Chopra by two strokes with two holes remaining in the tournament.  But after a Baddeley birdie and Chopra bogey on the 17th, they went to a playoff.  Baddeley won on the fourth playoff hole with a par, making it the first time since 2001 that the Aussie has won on home soil.  "It’s been a really great year," said Baddeley, who will play in the Australian Open next month, a tournament that he has won twice.
