Record-breaking Bernhard

The scoring was low at The Quarry in Naples, Florida, as Bernhard Langer won the Champion Tour's ACE Group Classic with a tournament record score of -20.
After firing a 64 on day 1, Langer continued his fine form with two further rounds of 66, finishing four shots clear of Fred Funk, who also hit two 66s after an opening round of 68.
This was Langer's 14th Champions Tour title and he doesn't appear to be tired of winning trophies.
He said: "It never gets old no matter where or how big the tournament, whether it's a major or not. Winning is what we're out here for, what I practise for."
South Africa's Nick Price and Russ Cochran tied in third a stroke behind Funk, and Mark Calcavecchia was a further stroke back in fifth place.
