Davis Love III wins Wyndham Championship
Davis Love III, -17, won the Wyndham Championship for the third time (1992, 2006 & 2015) after firing a final round 64, the second-lowest round of the day and his best closing round in Greensboro since a 62 in 1992.
Love (-17, 263, 64-66-69-64) played the front nine at -4 with a lot of action. His first seven holes were bogey, birdie, birdie, eagle, birdie, bogey to make the turn at -15 overall. On the back, he made a 12’ 2” putt for eagle on #15 to go in as the clubhouse leader.
Love became the second three-time winner of the Wyndham Championship, joining 8-time champion Sam Snead. He became the second player over 50 to win the Wyndham Championship, joining Snead, who accomplished the feat 50 years ago. At 51 years, four months, Love becomes the third oldest PGA TOUR winner, behind Snead (52 years, 10 months, 1965 Greater Greensboro Open) and Art Wall (51 years, 7 months, 1975 Greater Milwaukee Open).
