HERSHEY, Pa. -- Joe Ogilvie shot a final-round 1-under 71 Sunday to win The Reese's Cup Classic by three strokes and become the first double-winner on the Nationwide Tour this season.

Oglivie, who spent the last four years on the PGA Tour, finished with a 10-under 274. Paul Claxton and Wes Short, who both shot a final-round 69, and David McKenzie and Zach Johnson, who each shot a 70, finished in a four-way tie for second.

Ogilvie picked up $81,000 for the win, pushing his season total to $315,177 in 11 starts. The former Duke star is the quickest to reach $300,000 in the history of the PGA Tour's developmental tour. He won the Jacob's Creek Open in Australia earlier this season.

"I won twice out here in 1998 but those were my only two good tournaments all year," said Ogilvie, who now has nine top-25 finishes this year. "This is by far the best golf I've played."
