Austrian Sepp Straka took the title at the John Deere Classic with a stunning finish. Straka finished the tournament with an all-time best round fourth (-9) to finish with -21 and win his second PGA Tour title.
Straka started the final round of the John Deere Classic in T14, four strokes behind the leader. However, he managed to show his best on the final day, and with nine birdies (with a streak of four in a row) and an eagle, he clinched the title debate.
He bit back to the 18th hole, where he committed a double bogey that included a putt penalty. But his lead was already so great that his closest rivals had practically no chance of taking advantage of the champion’s single slip.
Second place at the John Deere Classic went to Brendon Todd and Alex Smalley, both with a score of -19. It was an excellent tournament for both players, and they have come a long way.
In T4 Adam Schenk and the ‘rising sensation’, Ludwig Aberg (again in the spotlight) finished. Aberg had a second best fourth round (-8) on a bogey-free day, with a six birdie and an eagle. It is by far the best result of his young career.
The American Schenk was also distinguished by his strong performance. Suffice it to say he stayed in the 60s for all four rounds of the John Deere Classic.
