Langer named PGA Champions' player of year

Germany's Bernhard Langer has claimed the PGA Tourn Champions' player-of-the-year award for a record sixth time.

Bernhard Langer has received the Jack Nicklaus Award as the PGA Tour Champions' player of the year for the third-straight season and record sixth time.

The 59-year-old German star won four times last season, including two major championships, and took his record fourth Charles Schwab Cup season points title.

Langer also won the Arnold Palmer Award as the tour's leading money winner for the record eighth time, finishing with $US3,016,959, and took the Byron Nelson Award for the record-tying fifth time with a scoring average of 68.31.

Langer has 29 victories on the 50-and-older tour to tie Lee Trevino for second place, 16 behind Hale Irwin.

The PGA Tour Champions season begins next week at Hualalai in Hawaii.
