Matt Hansen wins State Fair Amateur in Sacramento

UC Davis golf standout Matt Hansen sunk at 25-foot birdie putt on the 18^th hole at MacKenzie Golf Course at Haggin Oaks Monday.

And then he waited while his competitor, Jake Johnson of Cameron Park, set up for a 10-foot putt to tie the score.

Johnson's putt missed, sending Hansen home with the prize.

“All I was thinking was I had to make the putt to get into a playoff,” Hansen said, according to the Sacramento Bee.

Hansen shot a 6- 66 to finish with a 54-hole total of 17- under 199. He tied a tournament record with the one-stroke victory.

Fellow UC Davis teammates Tyler Raber and Matt Seramin finished at 4-under and 4-over respectively.
