Patton Kizzire and Brian Harman have claimed a one-stroke victory at the PGA Tour's QBE Shootout.

The American duo won the three-round team event, hosted by former world No.1 Australian golfer Greg Norman, with an 11-under 61 in Sunday's fourballs at Tiburon Golf Club in Florida.

Kizzire and Harman made a decisive eagle on the par-five 17th and finished at 30-under to edge out overnight co-leaders Graeme McDowell and Emiliano Grillo (62).

Northern Ireland's McDowell and his Argentinian partner Grillo made birdie the 17th to remain in touching distance but could not make up the deficit.

Luke List and Charles Howell carded a final round 61 to be a in a three-way tie for third at 28-under with Kevin Na and Bryson DeChambeu (62) and Gary Woodland and Charley Hoffman (63).

A 12-under 60 from Bubba Watson and Harold Varner was the best round of the day and was good enough to lift them to sixth - one place better than the LPGA's world No.5 Lexi Thompson and Tony Finau.
