Madison, MS (Sports Network) - Scott Stallings fired a 4-under 68 during his final round Sunday to hold off Jason Bohn and capture the True South Classic.

Stallings played 26 holes on Sunday, the result of weather problems that plagued the tournament all week. There were more than 10 hours of weather delays over the first three days, and by the end of Saturday, Stallings held a 4-stroke lead.

By the time the third round was completed Sunday morning, Stallings led Billy Horschel by only one stroke.

But Stallings never gave up first place, finishing at 24-under-par 264 thanks to a pair of birdies late in his final round. He earned his second career PGA Tour victory, having titled at the Greenbrier Classic last year.

Bohn carded a 67 and took second at minus-22. He put together a bogey-free final round, but didn't make enough birdies down the stretch to catch Stallings, and finished with the fourth runner-up finish of his PGA career.

Horschel managed only a 1-under 71 and ended up third at 20-under 268.
