SAN ANTONIO — Adam Scott won the Texas Open and, like the Australian does after many tournaments, heard from fellow countryman Greg Norman.

"He's glad I like the course," Scott said.

Scott should. He played it like Norman made it just for him.

Among harsh scrubland off the fairways that reminded him of Brisbane and sandbelt greens that looked like home, Scott got his first PGA Tour win in two years with a stellar 36-hole finale Sunday at the new Oaks Course at TPC San Antonio.

Norman designed the course, but there was more to this win than Scott having some sort of Aussie edge. The 29-year-old had David Stockton repair his putting game after missing the cut at Quail Hollow two weeks ago, and the work paid off.

Scott was 11 under in Sunday's 36-hole marathon, sinking a combined 12 birdies and one eagle. He finished at 14-under 274 and earned $1,098,000 for his seventh tour victory and first since the 2008 Byron Nelson Classic.

It was his first win overall since the Australian Open in December.

"Everyone has fairly short memories in this game," Scott said. "You've got to be out there all the time to be talked about, and hopefully I can keep going with this form and they can talk about me as one of the great players in the game."

Frederick Jacobson finished a stroke back, unable to force a playoff when the Swede missed a 16-footer from the fringe on No. 18.

It was a long final day. More than 3 inches of rain had washed out Friday's round, setting up Sunday's 36-hole marathon.

Ernie Els, Aaron Baddeley and Jimmy Walker tied for third at 12 under. Els, the FedEx Cup leader, followed a third-round 69 with a 68.

Baddeley also entered the day four back and shot 67 and 68. Walker had rounds of 70 and 69 and ended up with a career-best finish on the tour.

Tim Petrovic and tour rookie Garth Mulroy were 11 under.

Scott said he thought Aussies would do well on this course, and he was right.

His only blemish of the final round was on the par-5 18th, thought it nearly cost him. Scott's approach plopped in the greenside bunker, but he recovered to set up a 6-footer for par. But the putt rolled wide by a half-inch.
