ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. — PGA TOUR rookie Austin Cook won The RSM Classic without being seriously challenged, closing with two birdies for a 3-under 67 and a four-shot victory. The victory Sunday in the final PGA TOUR event of the calendar year gives Cook a spot in THE PLAYERS Championship among others for next year. Cook had a three-shot lead at the start of the final round at Sea Island. He made bogey from the bunker on the second hole and then didn’t drop a shot the rest of the way. Cook gave himself breathing room with a two-putt birdie on the 15th and a 15-foot birdie on the 17th. J.J. Spaun closed with a 66 and was runner-up. It was the second-straight year a PGA TOUR rookie won at Sea Island. Mackenzie Hughes won last year.
