Kizzire tops Hahn in Hawaii playoff to capture 2nd PGA title
Print Edition
Patton Kizzire parred the sixth playoff hole on Sunday to vanquish James Hahn and seize his second US PGA Tour title of the season at the Sony Open in Hawaii.
The marathon playoff capped a day when Kizzire needed all of his patience at Waialae in Honolulu. He parred the first nine holes before an eagle at the 10th gave him a share of the lead. After another birdie and a bogey he finished with a 68 for 17-under 263.
Hahn was already in the clubhouse at 17-under after a storming final-round 62, and it would take half a dozen more holes to determine the winner.
鈥淚t wasn鈥檛 necessarily pretty but it was nice to come out on top,鈥 Kizzire said. 鈥淛ames had a great round today.鈥
Kizzire, who won at Mayakoba in Mexico in November, became the tour鈥檚 first two-time winner in the 2017-18 season when he finished off Hahn at the par-three 17th. Kizzire was just off the green, 22 feet from the hole and Hahn further off the putting surface.
Both opted to putt, Kizzire leaving himself a four-footer that he made after Hahn鈥檚 eight-foot effort caught the edge but didn鈥檛 drop. 鈥淚t was kind of a marathon playoff,鈥 Kizzire said. 鈥淚 was hoping I could make an eagle on the first hole and end it quickly but I鈥檒l take it any way I can get it.鈥
