NEUTRAL
Houston — After missing a 5-foot birdie putt on the last hole on Sunday, Stephan Jaeger closed with nine consecutive pars for a 3-under 67, which kept him out of a playoff. This was Jaeger’s 135th career PGA Tour victory.
Scheffler was in position to make history by becoming the first player on the PGA Tour to win three straight starts in seven years. On the par-5 16th hole, he two-putted for a birdie from 20 feet, but on the 17th hole, he missed from 12 feet.
In the playoffs, Scheffler’s 5-foot putt to force a miss to the left was missed, forcing him to settle for a 68 and a share of second place medal.
Scheffler stated, “Obviously, I’m a little disappointed right now.”. If I pulled it or did something similar, that would be one thing. I misinterpreted it, that’s all. It’s a part of the game, so I’m not sure why I misread it. Perhaps I could have struck it faster; I thought I made a nice putt that kind of went where I wanted it to go. “.
With the win, 34-year-old German Jaeger—who attended a Tennessee high school as a 16-year-old—was able to secure his first Masters invitation. He is competing in this season’s final four $20 million marquee events.
By winning this early in the season, Alejandro Tosti could become the fourth rookie on the PGA Tour. Up until his excessively strong chip on the eighteenth hole, when he missed the eighteen-foot par putt for a 68, he was tied for first place.
At the beginning of the round, there was a five-way tie for the lead, which was the biggest on Tour since 2009. Throughout the round, eight players held at least a share of the lead.
At Memorial Park’s par-3 ninth hole, Jaeger took the lead with an 8-foot birdie putt. He was always in the mix. He finished the day with that final birdie, and nobody could catch up to him.
Jaeger remarked, “I was just trying to stay within myself.”. I couldn’t get a birdie on the back nine. However, this golf course presents challenges, particularly when you’re in the lead. I’m just ecstatic. “.
Shortly before the end, Taylor Moore, David Skinns, and Thomas Detry all made errors.
With three holes remaining, Scheffler trailed by one after missing the green on the par-3 15th and failing to make par on an 8-foot putt. Jaeger had to lay up and take par on the 16th hole, where he got one back with his birdie.
Both Scheffler and Jaeger missed excellent birdie opportunities on the 17th, and Scheffler was left with one final opportunity on the 18th.
Jaeger shot a 12-under 268 to finish and make his first appearance in the world’s top 50.
Tony Finau, the defending champion, tied Scheffler, Tosti, Detry, and Moore for second place after closing with two straight birdies for a 66.
In the last week to qualify for the Masters, players had to finish in the top 50. Only two players outside of the top 50, Mackenzie Hughes and Tom Hoge, had the best chance of making the cut.
