Taylor Funk, who recently golfed with POTUS, said the Republican’s focus was on the game rather than on his telephone—observing that the president is 100 percent involved in whatever he is doing. “No, it was all golf. “I feel like whatever he’s doing, he’s going to be doing it 100% at that time and he wanted to play good golf and we wanted to watch him play good golf.
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Abraham Ancer of Mexico won the World Golf Championships-FedEx St. Jude Invitational on Sunday for his first PGA TOUR title, beating Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama and Sam Burns with a 6-foot birdie putt on the second playoff hole. Ancer won the WGC event at TPC Southland after Burns’ 5 1/2-foot putt — on the same line as Ancer — lipped out. “This is surreal,” said Ancer, the 30-year-old former University of Oklahoma player who was born in McAllen, Texas. “I felt I left so many shots out there on the back nine, but you never know.” Ancer, who finished second at the Wells Fargo Championship in May, played more aggressively on the second extra trip down the par-4 18th. “I went right at it and the shot played perfectly in my mind and it came out just how I pictured it,” he said. Harris English, the leader after each of the first three rounds, faltered on the back nine to give Ancer, Burns and Matsuyama a chance. Ancer closed with a 2-under 68 to match Matsuyama and Burns at 16-under 264. Matsuyama shot a 63, and Burns had a 64. English, the 2013 champion at TPC Southwind, was a stroke back after a 73. On the first extra hole, Ancer, Burns and Matsuyama, coming off a bronze-medal playoff loss in the Tokyo Olympics, made decent runs at birdies. Matsuyama had the shortest attempt — from 20 feet — and it nearly went in the cup before lipping out. English was seeking the fifth title of his career — and third this season — but collapsed on the back nine. Ahead by two strokes at 20 under at the turn, he played the back nine in 5 over, missing a 13-foot birdie putt on 18. Bryson DeChambeau, two strokes behind English after a third-round 63, had a 74 to tie for eighth at 12 under.
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Dustin Johnson captured his second major title and 24th PGA TOUR win with a historic Masters victory. The reigning FedExCup champ set the tournament scoring record at 20 under after joining Tiger Woods (1997) and Jordan Spieth (2015) as just the third player to reach 18 under at Augusta National Golf Club. He began the final round with a four-shot lead, marking the fifth time he’s held the 54-hole lead at a major but just the first time he was able to convert. Johnson stumbled a bit in the middle of the first nine, making back-to-back bogeys at the fourth and fifth holes. That broke a stretch of 33 consecutive holes without a bogey going back to the second round. With his lead down to one shot, Johnson bounced back with a birdie at the par-3 sixth. He added another at the eighth and went to the back side with a 1-under 35 on the day, pushing his overall score to 17 under. He pulled away on the second nine with three straight birdies, sandwiching a three on the 14th with fours on the 13th and 15th after he laid up on both the par 5s.
