Briny Baird has bogeyed the 72nd hole at the McGladrey Classic to allow Chris Kirk a par finish to claim the trophy at Sea Island.
The 41-year-old American, who has never won on the PGA Tour, was tied at the top on 14-under par heading to the 18th, where he shot five to drop out of the lead.
Kirk had birdied the par-three 17th to tie himself at the top moments earlier, and the 28-year-old, playing in his native Georgia, only had to tap in for par on the 18th green to post 14-under for the championship.
It is his second career title, with his maiden victory coming at the Viking Classic two years ago.
South Africa's Tim Clark shot an eight-under 62, which was the joint-best score of the week, to tie Baird in second place, while Brian Gay, John Senden and Scott Brown shared fourth on 12-under.
