Mark Wiebe coasts to second senior title

Mark Wiebe made his second Champions Tour title look easy.

Wiebe never was challenged in Sunday’s final round en route to winning the inaugural $2 million Cap Cana Championship.

Entering with a three-shot lead, Wiebe maintained his advantage with a 5-under-par 67 at the scenic Punta Espada Golf Club. He finished at 14-under 202, four shots clear of Vicente Fernandez (65).

Leading wire-to-wire, Wiebe won for the first time since the 2007 SAS Championship and pocketed the $300,000 first prize.

After a bogey-free round Saturday, Wiebe left little doubt that he would finish on top after playing his first nine holes at 4-under, highlighted by an eagle at the par-5 sixth hole.

Wiebe added birdies at Nos. 10 and 12, building a five-shot lead before his lone mistake, a double-bogey at the par-5 16th. However, he recovered with two pars around a birdie at No. 17.

Fernandez climbed up the leaderboard with the best round of the day. The Argentine was red-hot on the front nine, carding five straight birdies from Nos. 4-8, then added two more at Nos. 10 and 12 during his bogey-free effort.

Craig Stadler (67) and Jay Haas (68) tied for third at 9-under.
