2024 Zozo Championship scores: Nico Echavarria holds off Justin Thomas, breaks Tiger Woods' tournament score

Echavarria's 20-under 260 total set a new tournament 72-hole low score

For the second time in his PGA Tour career, Nico Echavarria is a winner. The 36- and 54-hole leader reached 20 under for the tournament and successfully fended off Justin Thomas and Max Greyserman for a one-stroke victory at Accordia Golf Narashino Country Club.

"It's surreal," Echavarria said. "This moment is very special. It's been a good year for me, I just haven't had that top result. I've been very consistent, I've learned a lot this year. To finish the year this way is, it's incredible, especially doing it here in Japan in such an amazing country."

Echavarria's 20-under 260 total sets a new tournament 72-hole low score, which was previously held by Tiger Woods in 2019. It also represents the low 72-hole score in his PGA Tour career, besting his previous low at the 2023 Puerto Rico, where he also proved victorious. The Colombian improves to 2 for 2 with the 54-hole lead, and this one could not have come at a better time.
