The showdown between the champions is destined to be intense! 28-year-old Australian cameron Smith led the way from the first round of the tournament and finally laughed to the end, winning the championship with a total score of 258 in four rounds (65-64-64-65), 34 under par! The stroke also set a new record for the lowest 72 holes in the PGA TOUR in 19 years, after the previous record of a four-round total of 31 set by "Big Brother" Ernie Ayres in 2003, also at the stadium.
Cameron Smith achieved his fourth PGA Tour victory and his second (the remaining two were combo). He has performed well this season, finishing in the top 15 in all four competitions. His world ranking will also soar 11th after this battle, ranking 10th, the first time in his career that he has reached the top 10 in the world, and he is currently the highest-ranked Australian player.
Joan Ram, who has been on a truce for more than 80 days, returned to full combat value and has been fighting cameron Smith "inextricably", with the two tied for the lead after three rounds, and in the last round, Ram launched a fierce chase, and finally ranked second in the single one. But the overall -33 and third-place Matt Jones' -32 also broke the big Easy -31 record.
Joan Ram tied the PGA Tour record with 32 birds in four rounds, and Matt Jones finished with a -23 in the last two rounds, the lowest stroke in history in the last two rounds of the PGA Tour.
In terms of other players, Patrick Cantley -26 was fourth alone, while Colin Morikawa, Justin Thomas and Daniel Berg were tied for fifth.
