Mark Mulder won the American Century Championship on Sunday in Stateline, Nevada, holding off fellow former major league pitcher Eric Gagne by a point. Mulder finished with 82 points at Edgewood Tahoe in the modified Stableford event. Players receive six points for eagle, three for birdie, one for par, none for bogey and minus-2 for double bogey or worse. Mulder had seven birdies and two bogeys for a 67 and a 30-point round. He earned $125,000. Gagne also had a 30-point day, making an eagle on the par-4 10th in a 67. Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Josh Scobee, the second-round leader, was third at 79. Recently retired tennis player Mardy Fish was fourth at 71.
