Aaron Rai secured his first PGA Tour title by winning the Wyndham Championship with a stellar performance at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, N.C. Rai, a 29-year-old Englishman, closed with a 6-under 64 to finish at 18-under 262, sealing the victory with a crucial birdie putt on the 18th hole.
Rai expressed his joy at achieving this milestone, stating, 'It truly is a dream come true.' He credited the support of many individuals who played a significant role in his journey to this point. Max Greyserman, the former Duke player, finished two strokes behind Rai after a late stumble in the final round.
Greyserman's fortunes changed dramatically when he made a quadruple-bogey 8 on the 14th hole, allowing Rai to catch up and eventually take the lead. Despite his strong play throughout the tournament, Greyserman's double bogey on the 16th hole proved costly, as he relinquished his advantage.
J.J. Spaun and Ryo Hisatsune tied for third place at 15 under, while amateur Luke Clanton finished tied for fifth with Austin Eckroat at 14 under. Clanton, who is set to compete in the U.S. Amateur, expressed his exhaustion after playing 39 holes of golf in one day.
