A birdie at the last hole saw Collin Morikawa take victory at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am - his first PGA Tour win in more than two years.

Having been two ahead with two to play, the American's lead disappeared as Australian Min Woo Lee birdied 18, before Morikawa bogeyed the penultimate hole himself.

Locked at 21-under, the pair were soon joined by Austrian Sepp Straka and a play-off looked a possibility.

But following a 20-minute wait to play his second shot as Jacob Bridgeman battled strong winds up ahead, Morikawa found the green and then left himself a short putt to card a 67 and edge ahead to end his trophy drought.

"It's special for a lot of reasons," said the 29-year-old afterwards.

"I've put countless hours and nights - probably too many hours - thinking about golf.

"I kept believing in myself. Honestly, at the beginning of this week it didn't really feel like this was going to be possible."

Starting the day eight shots back, world number one Scottie Scheffler had taken the clubhouse lead at 20 under thanks to a nine-under round of 63 - including three eagles.

Two-time major winner Morikawa, though, birdied the 15th and 16th to move to 22 under before his wobble at 17.

Overnight leader Akshay Bhatia was unable to continue his push as a level-par 72 left him on 19 under.

England's Tommy Fleetwood had a late chance to get to 21 under, but left his eagle chip short at the last and finished alongside Scheffler in fourth place.

Defending champion Rory McIlroy had eight birdies in a blemish-free 64 - his best round of the tournament - as he finished on -17 alongside England's Matt Fitzpatrick.

"All in all, some really good stuff this week. Pretty encouraged going into next week for sure," said world number two McIlroy, who will next compete at the Genesis Invitational in Los Angeles.
