Y.E. Yang was first to finish at last year’s Honda Classic and this year he just plain finished first.
Alone in front before a wild finish, Yang shot a 2-under 68 Sunday to end up one shot ahead of John Rollins and pick up his first PGA Tour victory.

Yang entered the day as a +450 favorite to win.

Yang took command with three straight birdies on the front side and did not fold, picking up a check for $1,008,000. With the win, he also qualified for next week’s CA Championship at Doral, plus earned an invitation to next month’s Masters.

Rollins was pegged at +750 to win on Sunday. Ben Crane (+1800) was third after finishing 6 under, and Jeff Klauk (+900) was alone in fourth, another shot back.

Defending champion Ernie Els shot 66 and finished tied for 22nd.
