Australian Steve Allan birdied the final hole to forge a one-stroke victory over Stewart Cink on Sunday at the Boeing Classic in Snoqualmie, Wash.

Allan won for the third time this season and second time in last three starts on tour, shooting a bogey-free 7-under-par 65 to finish 15 under for the three-day tournament at The Club at Snoqualmie Ridge.

He said he was 'a little' surprised by three victories in 2025, following up wins at The Galleri Classics in March and the Dick's Open in July with Sunday's triumph.

'I think I would have probably laughed if you told me I would have won three times,' said Allan, 51, who joined the PGA Tour Champions in 2024 and was playing in his 39th event. 'I definitely thought that I had a win in me, but I wouldn't have said three.'

His 5-foot birdie putt at the par-5 No. 18 was the difference, as Cink, who started the round with a three-stroke lead, found a bunker at 18 and settled for par at the final hole. Cink finished the day with a 2-under 70 and alone in second place at 14-under 202.

'It's weird, not something I've ever done before,' Allan said of watching Cink play the last hole with the title on the line. 'I think it's really odd because you don't want to wish ill on someone but, obviously, you want to win the tournament. He's a great player so I fully expected him to make a birdie.

'But you know what, at the end of the day if he got up here and made eagle and beat me, so be it,' Allan continued. 'I played well and had a great week.'

Allan carded birdies at Nos. 1, 8, 9, 12, 15, 16 and 18. Cink lost ground with bogeys at Nos. 6, 10 and 11 against birdies at Nos. 4, 8, 12, 15 and 16.

'Well, I'm disappointed,' Cink said. 'I mean, I played well enough to win this, just made a couple mistakes and kind of put myself a little bit in a hole today. And I clawed back out, which I was really proud of.

'I'm in the middle of the fairway on 18 and we -- first of all, we got the situation wrong. We at the time thought that we were tied. It didn't really affect the shot plan, but then the wind changed on me in my shot. If I had waited about 30 seconds to hit the shot, we would have played it differently. It didn't quite go far enough. I hit a little too far right.'

Ernie Els of South Africa (6-under 66 on Sunday) and Darren Clarke (66) of Northern Ireland tied for third at 13 under.

Two-time defending champion Stephen Ames of Canada carded 69 to tie for 14th at 7 under.
