            LAS  VEGAS  (AP)  —  Kevin
            Na  lost  a  three-shot  lead
            on the back nine, saved his       Falcons give up too many
            chances with a clutch par

            tals for Children Open in a
            playoff  Sunday  when  Pat-
            rick  Cantlay  three-putted
            the second extra hole.
            It  was  a  wild  finish  at  the   Houston  Texans  quarterback  Deshaun  Watson

            he hit into the water on the
            par-5 16th and lost the lead
            for the first time all day with
            a bogey. But he delivered
            a  25-foot  par  putt  on  the
            17th hole to tie for the lead
            after Cantlay went into the
            water,  and  he  matched
            Cantlay's birdie putt on the
            18th on the first extra hole.
            A  day  of  mistakes  ended
            with  the  worst  one  —  a
            three-putt  from  Cantlay
            from  45  feet,  the  second
            one from just inside 6 feet.
