Sahith Theegala
After holding at least a share of the lead each of the first three rounds this week, rookie Theegala finished at 19-under and tied eighth.
Indian golfer Anirban Lahiri missed the cut for the weekend but, along with Theegala’s wondrous leap, they’d return on tour at Shriner’s Hospital Open making it through another adventurous weekend.
Winner-winner chicken dinner for Sam Burns
The 23-years-old final round at 1 under 71, even as Sam Burns, 25, earned his second Tour victory in his 87th start following a one-shot win over Nick Watney and Cameron Young and a three-shot win over Theegala who contested hard to top the leaderboard.
The day was progressively ongoing for Burns too who was denied the route at Ryder Cup by US Captain Steve Stricker, hence, he only chose to pick up his pace and make it grow better for the next set of battles at the Ryder. Though the outcome of the same was productive and positive for Burns.
“Getting the call from Stricker on Monday and hearing the news that I didn't make the team was very motivating and kind of gut-wrenching,” he said. “It's definitely motivated me to try to be on the next team.”
