Cantlay on top at Jack’s house American Patrick Cantlay shot his lowest ever final round in his PGA Tour career to take a two-shot victory over Adam Scott at the Memorial Tournament on Sunday. A bogey-free 64 saw the 27-year-old finally close out with a win after a series of top tens in recent weeks, including a T3 at the PGA Championship. Going five-under-par through the front nine on Sunday, it seemed the only way Cantlay could throw this one away would be to beat himself but after Jack Nicklaus advised him to “figure out how to play those last 30 minutes,” a blow-up was never a likely occurrence. A further three birdies on the back-nine saw the American sweep past the returning-to-form Martin Kaymer and Adam Scott to claim his second PGA Tour title and moved into the world’s top ten.
US Open Next week we have another Major championship on the rota with the best in the world heading to Pebble Beach to compete.
