Niemann seals wire-to-wire Genesis Invitational title

Joaquin Niemann won his second PGA Tour title as he held off Collin Morikawa and rookie Cameron Young to complete an impressive wire-to-wire victory at the Genesis Invitational.

The Chilean, 23, finished two shots clear of fast-finishing Morikawa, chasing the world No 1 spot with a victory, and Young after a final-round level-par 71 at Riviera Country Club.

Having opened the event with 63s in consecutive rounds, Niemann, whose previous victory came at The Greenbrier in 2019, ended the week a shot shy of matching the tournament's lowest 72-hole score.

Niemann, who is the youngest winner of the event since World War II, saw his three-shot overnight lead cut to a single stroke when he bogeyed the seventh after playing partner Young had birdied the first.

However, Niemann bounced straight back to birdie the next as Young bogeyed, with Morikawa, playing in the penultimate group, six shots back at the turn after mixing three birdies, including a chip-in at the seventh, with one bogey.
