St. Louis native Hale Irwin became the first player to ever win a men’s professional tour event five straight times yesterday, by taking the Turtle Bay Championship in Hawaii. Irwin shot a five-under 67 Sunday and finished at 16-under for the tournament. He beat second place finisher Dana Quigley by five strokes. It’s his 41st victory on the Champions tour, which was formerly called the Senior Tour. Kansas City native Tom Watson finished in third place, shooting 10-under for the tourney.
