ST. LOUIS -- Kohki Idokis eyes welled with tears as he putted for the Senior PGA Championship, and again in the interview room Sunday. Everything about his first appearance in the event, and first trip to the United States, was perfect. "It is one of the greatest things to win in this game, so I cannot imagine more," Idoki said Sunday through a translator. "I cant believe that I am the champion." Kenny Perry cant believe he let another major tournament title slip away. "Well, it was going good for the first 13 holes or whatever," Perry said. Idoki erased a five-stroke deficit against a fading Perry with room to spare, charging to a two-stroke victory at Bellerive Country Club. It was the third bitter final-round major tournament failure for the 52-year-old Perry, who led by three strokes with six holes to play but settled for a second-place tie with Jay Haas. Perry spoke briefly after trudging off the 18th green, noting that hed been "shell shocked" by his crucial double bogey and that he was "in jail the whole time." "It didnt seem like he was sharp from the beginning," Haas said. "I just dont think he was as sharp. If he was, he would have been 14 or 15 under, I think, with no problem." For the first 12 holes, it appeared to be a two-man contest between Perry and Haas, a two-time champion and hometown favourite from nearby Belleville, Ill. To Haas, the 5-foot-5, 136-pound player from Osaka, Japan, tracking them down was a mystery man. "Ive never seen Idoki hit a shot or anything, so I dont know much about him," Haas said. "But obviously hes a hell of a player. A great round, and he did what he had to do." The 51-year-old Idoki closed with a 6-under 65 to finish at 11 under and become the first player to win the tournament on his first attempt since Michael Allen in 2009, and the first Asian male to win a senior major tournament. Idoki led the Japan PGA Tour in driving accuracy for a decade but has just four career victories. He won once on the Japan Senior Tour last year and won two titles on the Japan PGA Tour, in 1990 and 93. Last year, Idoki finished a distant 65th in the Senior British Open after a final round of 81. Idoki got a beer shower from fellow Japanese players Joe Ozaki and Kiyoshi Murota after finishing ahead of Perrys final group. Idoki said Osaki, who invited Idoki to accompany him to the tournament, is a mentor. Idoki wasnt sure about a title defence, saying "I prefer to just stay in Japan." Perry shot a 72, and Haas had a 70. Perry squandered a two-stroke lead with two holes to go in the 2009 Masters and also let victory slip away in the 1996 PGA. Mark OMeara was fourth, three strokes back after 65 including an eagle on No. 17. Murota was another shot behind after a 67. Perry staggered to the finish line, beginning with a double bogey on No. 13 that dropped him into a tie with Idoki. Another bogey on No. 16 dropped him out of the lead he held or shared since the end of the second round and he bogeyed No. 17 after shooting sideways out of deep rough in trees on No. 17. Perry lost his lead three-putting from the fringe up against the edge of the rough on No. 13, running it past the cup from about 3 feet before holing out to put him at even par for the day. He arched his back in disappointment after leaving a long birdie putt just short on No. 14. Idoki climbed into contention with four birdies and no bogeys on the front nine, and added two more birdies in a flawless finish. Jim Rutledge closed with a 64 for the best round of the tournament. He tied for sixth with fellow Canadian Rod Spittle, Russ Cochran, Kirk Triplett and Duffy Waldorf. Rutledge had seven birdies, five on the front nine, with no bogeys and no long putts to save par.

Drew Brees threw a pair of touchdown passes in the first half and the guys on the other side made sure that was enough, sending the Saints to a 17-13 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday night.

Robredo, ranked No. 16, bounced back from an upset loss to Leonardo Mayer in the second round of the Royal Guard Open in Chile last week to down Carreno Busta in 1 hour, 25 minutes.

HARRISON, N.J. -- Kenny Miller helped the Vancouver Whitecaps finally open their account in the road win column. Miller scored in the 83rd minute and the Whitecaps won their first away game this season, 2-1 over the Eastern Conference-leading New York Red Bulls on Saturday. "It is a relief. It was important for us to do that," Vancouver head coach Martin Rennie said. Vancouver is 1-4-1 away from BC Place this season. The Whitecaps are unbeaten in three straight and improved to 4-4-4 on the season. "That was an important win for us," Rennie said. "I dont think our point totals (match the quality of) our play." Miller slipped behind New York defender Kosuke Kimura, who was eyeing midfielder Russell Teibert outside the penalty area. Teibert spied Miller, who outmuscled Kimura to the ball for his third of the season. "(Miller) had been looking for that ball all game long," Teibert said. "Fantastic finish." Even though Millers goal decided the game, it was the play of goalkeeper Brad Knighton and the back four who kept the Whitecaps in the match. Facing the MLS best offensive attack, Knighton yielded just teammates Greg Klazura own goal in 13 shots. Klazura deflected New York midfielder Jonathan Steeles crossing shot into the goal in the 51st minute to give the Red Bulls a 1-0 lead. "Theyre a lethal attack. We managed it very well," said Knighton. Especiallyy in the first half.dddddddddddd New York, which entered the game unbeaten in its last seven, levelled six shots at Knighton while controlling the ball for nearly 71 per cent of the half. Knightons biggest save came on Peguy Luyindula in the 94th minute. The New York forward split two defenders in injury time and blasted a drive into Knightons midsection. A few seconds later, the game was over and the Whitecaps were celebrating their first road win of the season. "Theyre lethal right to the end," Knighton said. "It was a sigh of relief." Jordan Harvey equalized seven minutes after Klazuras own goal. New York midfielder Eric Alexander headed Y.P. Lees cross into the box and Harvey ripped a left-footed drive that Luis Robles did not have a chance to stop to tie the game at 1-1. "It felt great," Harvey said. "Its a goal. Its a boost for the team." "It builds everything. Great team effort. Were missing some guys (but the win) shows we have a deep team." Notes: Vancouver improved to 1-0-3 against the Red Bulls in four all-time matchups. The announced attendance was 19,969. ... The Whitecaps were shorthanded as defender Jay Demerit (torn left Achilles), defender Brad Rusin (strained left calf) and midfielder Omar Salgado (fractured fifth metatarsal in the right foot) did not play due to injuries, while midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker was suspended for the game.
