Kenny Perry beat Brad Adamonis and Jay Williamson in a playoff to win the John Deere Classic and escape with his third victory in five starts after bogeying the 18th hole on Sunday.

Perry had a one-stroke lead at 17-under through 17 only to lose it thanks to some poor shots from the fringe on the final hole of regulation.

While Adamonis and Williamson both hit approach shots into the pond on the first playoff hole, Perry tapped in his short par putt for his 12th career victory.
