Brooks Koepka wins THE CJ CUP @ NINE BRIDGESBrooks Koepka wins THE CJ CUP @ NINE BRIDGES
JEJU ISLAND, South Korea (AP) — Brooks Koepka won THE CJ CUP @ NINE BRIDGES on Sunday by four strokes. Koepka, the reigning PGA TOUR Player of the Year, shot a final-round 8-under 64 for a 21-under total of 267. Koepka led by four strokes after three rounds. Gary Woodland certainly made it interesting. Woodland started the day five strokes behind Koepka but pulled level after making six birdies in seven holes on the front nine. The two dueled on the back nine, with Woodland birdieing Nos. 15 and 16 to again pull level. But Koepka did the same, and a bogey by Woodland on the par-3 17th gave Koepka the cushion he needed to close out the win despite a birdie on the 18th by Woodland. The biggest moment came on the 16th. Koepka went from a fairway bunker to just left of the green, about 70 feet away. Koepka hit a chip-and-run that was stopped by the pin and dropped for the birdie. Koepa finished with a 25-foot eagle putt for a 29 on the back nine. Woodland finished second after a 63. Ryan Palmer birdied his last seven holes to shoot 62 and finish in a tie for third place with Rafa Cabrera Bello (65), four strokes behind Koepka. Defending champion Justin Thomas finished at 5-under after a 68 Sunday. It was Koepka’s 12th victory worldwide, including four wins on the European Challenge Tour. He now has won in seven countries – the U.S., South Korea, Spain, Italy, Japan, Turkey and Scotland. The PGA TOUR heads to Shanghai next week for the final stop on its Asian swing, the World Golf Championships-HSBC Champions.
