UNIVERSITY PLACE — It was the Aaron Baddeley show for the second straight year at the BMW Northwest Charity Skins Game.
Baddeley won a 10-hole carryover by making a par on the 17th hole at Chambers Bay on Saturday, winning $33,500 worth of skins against fellow PGA Tour pros Ryan Moore, Bubba Watson and Ben Crane.
Baddeley also won the inaugural BMW Northwest Charity Skins game last year.
"We've got to find a way to stop him, he's winning too much," said Moore, the host for the event. "But you know, he's one of the best players in the world for a reason, and he showed why."
The four players battled for a $50,000 skins pot — all of which will go to charities designated by the Ryan Moore Foundation.
Watson was second with $10,000, Crane was third with $4,000 and Moore finished with $2,500.
Moore might have had the best round despite being shut out. He had birdie chances on several holes and when he made birdie, someone else did too.
"That's the best round I've played in three or four months," Moore said. "I've been working hard on some things and starting to feel like my old self again."
A crowd of 1,200 was on hand at Chambers Bay.
"Spectacular setting," said Crane, a Portland native.
