Australian Cam Davis holed from the greenside bunker for eagle at the penultimate hole and then birdied the last to force his way into a three-way playoff in which he prevailed to win the Rocket Mortgage Classic and his first PGA Tour victory. “It’s the only reason I’m sitting here now,” Davis said afterwards. “To be honest, in my head, there wasn’t a thought of trying to hole it.”
Kevin Na tapped in for birdie at the last to claim victory by a shot from Joaquin Niemann and Chris Kirk at the US PGA Tour Sony Open at Waialae Country Club in Hawaii. Na closed with a 65 which added to his 61 on Saturday meant he shot fourteen-under-par over the weekend.
Harris English defeated Chile's Joaquin Niemann at the first playoff hole to win his first PGA title for eight years. Harris's holed his six-foot birdie putt to see off Niemann and pick up the $1.34 million winner's cheque and the Sentry Tournament of Champions title.
