In this thrilling PGA TOUR showdown, Michael Thorj Bjornson showcases his prowess with a wedge after a stellar tee shot on the par 4 third hole. Meanwhile, Vince Whley seizes the opportunity on the par 5 fourth with a fantastic shot that sets him up for success.

Amidst the intense competition, Alejandro Toasty impresses with a beautiful putt for par on the challenging 11th hole, showcasing nerves of steel.
As the tournament unfolds, Garrick Higgo emerges as a formidable contender, climbing up the ranks to become a co-leader at an impressive 16 under.

Damon's hopes are dashed with back-to-back bogeys, ultimately costing him the lead and paving the way for Higgo to clinch his second PGA Tour victory with a gritty even par 72.
