Dublin, Jun 02: Despite making bogey on five of the last six holes, Kenny Perry gained his second successive victory with a two-shot win in the Memorial Tournament on Sunday. Perry's even-par 72 left him on 13-under-par 275 and was worth $700,000. Twice U.S. Open champion Lee Janzen also shot 72 and was second, while Masters champion Mike Weir of Canada fired a seven-under 65 for third. World number one Tiger Woods also had a 65 and tied for fourth with Fiji's Vijay Singh, who closed with a 71. Perry was four-under on his round and held a six-stroke lead over Janzen when his problems began on the par-four 13th, where a bad drive cost him a shot. The 42-year-old Perry also bogeyed the 14th, then birdied the 15th to regain one shot before he bogeyed his way to the clubhouse.


Janzen, however, could make only one birdie against one bogey during the same stretch.
