Just weeks after holding up the trophy at PGA West, John Rahm finds himself in the winner’s circle for the third time this season.

Rahm carded a 69 on Sunday, which would be enough to outlast 2021 Genesis Invitational Champion Max Homa by two strokes.

It was a battle from beginning to the end, but it came down to who was a better putter. But in the end Rahm hit more than Homa.

Sunday’s usually belong to the final group, however all eyes were heavy on the 8:40am tee time. That’s where golf legend Tiger Woods was sporting the famous Sunday Red after leaving the course with uncertainty following Round 2, dangerously close to cut-line.

Tiger finished the day two over and one under for the tournament
