The 39-year-old's victory gave him the 30th title of his professional career

GOLD COAST (AFP) - Adam Scott sealed his first tournament win in almost four years on Sunday when he shot a three-under 69 to win the Australian PGA Championship by two shots.

The 39-year-old s victory gave him the 30th title of his professional career and a second Australian PGA crown after his win in 2013, also at Royal Pines. He was edged into second place by compatriot Greg Chalmers in a thrilling seven-hole play-off on the same course in 2014.

Scott s last tournament win came three years, nine months, 16 days ago at the WGC Cadillac Classic in Miami, where he beat Bubba Watson by a shot.
