Scottsdale, Arizona (AP) – Thomas diverts almost the 16th hole of the Rowdy Par -3 in a section of four closing blanks, drawing a 65 under 65 Sunday to win the Phoenix Open by seven shots for its first PGA Tour victory.
A year after the soggy conditions led to several delays, the perfect time welcomed the players during the TPC Scottsdale stadium. Fans were also on their best behavior – as much as they can be at the most crazy stop in the PGA Tour – after a tournament in 2024 filled with Chil -May.
Detram took advantage of the ideal conditions and sailed in the train to enter the final round with a five -stroke advance. Scottie Scheffler, Jordan Spieth and Daniel Berger, all made charges, but Distry struck him 16 inches by 16 to seal his first victory in 68 PGA Tour departures.
Detry added two other stews to finish at 24-mine of 260, becoming the first Belgian to win the PGA Tour.
Berger (67) and Michael Kim equalized for second place. Spieth pulled 68 for the fourth place at 16 under his second tournament since wrist surgery last summer.
Scheffler pulled 31 in the first nine to reach 14 sous, only to fade. He gad a 5 against 41 on the nine rear for a 72, falling into equality for 25th to 8 under his second departure since he injured himself by hand on a broken glass.
LPGA tour
Bradenton, Florida (AP) – Yeali Noh transformed a deficit in a three -stroke advance on the triple Jin Young Ko champion in the space of two holes on his back on Sunday and crossed from there to his first LPGA tour Victory in the Founders Cup.
The 23-year-old man in northern California pulled a 3-mine of 68 to finish 21 under 263 at Bradenton Country Club, four shots better than KO (71). Noh made his last Bogey of the week during his last hole on Friday, then took the lead on Saturday with a 63.
Noh made his 111th career start, the first of his sixth season on tour. She made 10 consecutive pars, allowing KO on board in front, but Birdie putts blocked about 15 feet on the 13th and 12 feet on the 14th par -4 while Ko was Bogey on each – her first Bogeys of the week.
Ko missed a chance to win the event that honors the founders of the tour on a fourth site. In 2019, she won in Desert Ridge in Phoenix, 2021 in Mountain Ridge in New Jersey and 2023 in the playground in Upper Montclair, also in New Jersey.
Megan Khang (68) was another kick. Miyu Yamashita, Hannah Green and Jin Hee IM equally at the fourth row at 13 sous. Nelly Korda, the best, who won a different tournament on this course last year to launch a seven victories season, closed with a 71 to finish nine shots.
Liv Golf Lague
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia (AP) – Adrian Méronk in Poland won the first Liv Golf tournament under the lights on Saturday evening, pulling a 71 -me to fill a victory with wire.
Méronk finished 17 under 199 after opening with cycles of 62 and 66 at the Riyad Golf Club. Jon Rahm and Sebastian Munoz were equal to the second row, two strokes after turns of 67.
The Rahm Legion XIII won the title of the team.
European tour
Doha, Qatar (AP) – Li Haotong de China made a 15 -foot stewed putt on the last hole on Sunday for a 69 under 69 and a victory on the Rasmus Neergaard -Petersen of Denmark in the masters of Qatar.
Li let out a strong roar, pumped the two fists and cried in the arms of his shopping cart after his winning putt at the Doha Golf Club. He finished 16-mine of 272 for his fourth European tour.
Neergaard-Petersen closed with a 65.
Champions PGA Tour
Rabat, Morocco (AP) – Miguel Angel Jimenez won the Hassan II Trophy on Saturday at 61 for his 14th PGA Tour Champions victory, beating Steven Alker by two shots.
