The U.S. Senior Open came down to the wire as Padraig Harrington held off Stewart Cink to claim the championship at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs.

Miguel Angel Jimenez, who sports columnist Troy Renck referred to as the as the most interesting man in the tournament, made a run on Sunday, shooting a 6-under par on Sunday to finish third.

Another big winner this weekend? The Broadmoor, which will host the tournament again in 2031 and 2037.
