(Reuters) - Australia's Greg Chalmers closed with an emphatic eagle to secure his maiden PGA Tour triumph at the Barracuda Championship on Sunday, his six-point victory earning him the added bonus of a British Open exemption.

A shaky Chalmers carded a four-point final round for a 43-point total to emerge victorious over American Gary Woodland at an event that uses the modified Stableford scoring system at the scenic Montreux Golf layout in Reno, Nevada.
