Lucas Glover clinched a consecutive win on the PGA Tour, securing victory over Patrick Cantlay in a thrilling play-off during the FedEx St Jude Classic.
With Cantlay’s impeccable six-under-par 64 final round, including birdies on six holes, he briefly held an advantage after Glover bogeyed the 14th hole.
However, Glover, the 2009 US Open champion and last week’s winner, reclaimed his position, finishing the tournament 15-under, tied with Cantlay.
This pushed the first leg of the FedExCup Playoffs into a sudden death. The decisive moment came when Cantlay’s tee shot landed in the water during the play-off, allowing Glover to take the title as Cantlay missed his putt.
What I think is even more impressive about Glover’s return to form, this is what his putting used to look like:
Meanwhile, England’s Tommy Fleetwood and Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy finished tied for third, one shot behind the leaders.
Another disappointing tournament for Fleetwood, however, I think he gets it done this week at the BMW Championship.
LPGA Tour
Lilia Vu clinched her second major title of the season at the AIG Women’s Open, finishing six shots ahead of local favourite Charley Hull.
Beginning the day co-leading, Vu maintained her dominance with a brilliant performance at Walton Heath.
She notched up six birdies and a single bogey, carding a five-under 67 to conclude the tournament at 14 under.
This victory follows her Chevron Championship win, making Vu the first since Jin Young Ko in 2019 to secure multiple women’s major titles in one year.
Meanwhile, Hull ended in second place after a tough final round.
