William Mouw shot a career record of 9 under 61 under the word on Sunday to win the ISCO championship for his first PGA Tour title during his 20th departure.
Mouw, 24, climbed 24 places in the ranking to finish at 10 under 270 at Hurstbourne Country Club in Louisville, Ky. He had to wait almost two hours to see if the third round leader Paul Peterson made a 55-foot putt on the 18th par-4 to send the tournament to additional holes.
Peterson missed and finished with a 1-mine of 69 to finish four laps at 9 sous and second at the alternative event of the PGA Tour. Mouw was on the practice at the time, trying to prepare for a possible playoff series.
“I was not paying attention too close, but Paul is a very good putter and I expected him to do some putts going down, and he did it,” said Mouw. “As I said, I was ready for a playoff series. I was mentally – I did not win the golf tournament until the last putt fell. I was very – I don’t want to say that I hoped the playoffs, but I was really ready for that, and that didn’t happen in this way, but that was, yes.”
Mouw took a hot start, steaming at the first three holes and five on the first nine. He sneakted the two holes by 5, n ° 7 and 10, and totaled new in the round without Bogey, including an 18 feet on the 17th par-3.
“Well, I played very good golf this week,” said Mouw when he was questioned at the start of the seven strokes of the round. “There were many close calls and I knew that if everything clicks and I did the right things, I could go pretty much. I’m just delighted that it happened.”
Peterson, who was looking for his first PGA Tour victory during his 20th departure, had a rough blow, with bogeys at n ° 3 and 6 for +2 on the first nine. He did his only storms of La Ronde – at n ° 10, 14 and 16 – on the nine rear.
“I do not know, I had difficulties on the first nine,” said Peterson, 37, who won his first finalist. “I mean, I hit him in this Bunker of Fairway on 3 and I could not get on green, so I will take this Bogey. Ducy to Three Putt over 6, but for my defense, I have not struck this green all week, I do not think that many people have done it, so it is difficult to know what speed was going to be what I was.”
Spain Manuel Elvira finished third with 7 under a 66 Sunday. Amateur Jackson Koivun, 20, who plays at the University of Auburn, tied in sixth row at 5 sous. Chan Kim, who led after two days with cycles of 61 and 68, went 75-73 the rest of the path to equalize the 14th to 3 sous.
Kim and Peterson were one of the dozens of golfers who had to finish the third round on Sunday morning after several suspensions on Saturday due to the bad weather before the game due to the darkness.
