Austria's Sepp Straka boosted his Ryder Cup chances by claiming a second PGA Tour title in the John Deere Classic.
Despite sitting T133 after an opening-round 73, Sepp Straka won his second PGA Tour title with final-round 62 and became the first player since 1992 to win John Deere Classic with an over-par round during the week.
Ludvig Aberg (T4/-18) posts his first top-10 finish in his ninth start on TOUR; was a cumulative 2-over par for his six final-round scores on TOUR prior to Sunday’s 8-under 63
Adam Schenk (T4/-18) posts third top-10 in fifth start at the John Deere Classic (T6/2019, T4/2021, T4/2023)
Chinese Taipei native Kevin Yu (T6/-16) was inside the top-40 of the FedExCup standings after a T7 at the 2023 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, but took a four-month layoff following meniscus surgery on his left knee; returned at 2023 Travelers Championship with an opening-round 65, eventually finishing T49 before a missed cut at last week’s Rocket Mortgage Classic
Cameron Young (T6/-16), the highest-ranked player in the field at No. 19, plays hole No. 18 in 4-over for the week.
