PGA Championship: Golf’s ‘nearly man’ Xander Schauffele in first major win
Al Jazeera
Schauffele outdueled Bryson DeChambeau to win the PGA Championship, capturing it with the lowest score in major history.
Xander Schauffele finally added some elusive silverware to his Olympic gold, shedding the title of golf’s nearly man with a dramatic birdie on the final hole to win the PGA Championship and hoist the massive Wanamaker Trophy.
A week after squandering a two-shot lead in the final round at the Wells Fargo, Schauffele took the same advantage onto the back nine at the Valhalla Golf Club but this time would not fold, holding his nerve and claiming his maiden major title with a pressure-packed six-foot putt.
“I was pretty nervous,” admitted Schauffele after the win on Sunday.
“I kept reading it, kept kind of panning. I thought, oh, my gosh, this is not what I want for a winning putt.
“I ended up playing it straight. Just so much relief.
