Reitan wins first PGA Tour title and Snedeker wins for first time in almost 8 years
CHARLOTTE, N.C.: Norway’s Kristoffer Reitan shot 2-under 69 on Sunday to earn a two-shot win over Rickie Fowler and Nicolai Hojgaard at the Truist Championship for his first victory on the PGA Tour. Reitan, who won twice previously on the European Tour, finished at 15-under 269 and secured his spot in the Masters next year. Alex Fitzpatrick, the 54-hole leader, finished three shots back after shooting 73. Reitan, a PGA Tour rookie who started the round one shot behind Fitzpatrick, was even par for the day after 13 holes and one shot behind Fowler, who surged to the lead after shooting 30 on the front nine. But Fowler, who started the day seven shots behind, couldn’t sustain the momentum and shot 65. Reitan birdied the reachable par-4 14th and the par-5 15th to pull ahead. LPGA Tour WEST CALDWELL, N.J.: Jeeno Thitikul fought off one final challenge Sunday and pulled away with a pair of late birdies for a 3-under 69 to win the Mizuho Americas Open by four shots over Ruoning Yin, giving the Thai player her second LPGA Tour victory this year. Thitikul was staked to a two-shot lead at the start of the final round.
