Viktor Hovland claimed his first PGA Tour title at the Puerto Rico Open. The Norwegian carded a final round 70 to beat Josh Teater by a single shot after holing a 30-foot putt on the final hole.
Kyle Stanley, Sam Ryder and Emiliano Grillo tied for third.
It was a day to forget though for Ben Coley's pre-tournament selection Martin Laird.
The 37-year-old Scot began the day one shot behind Hovland at the top of the leaderboard after matching the course record with a 63 at Coco Beach Golf Course on Saturday.
But it all fell apart a day later as he began with a double-bogey of the par-four first hole.
Though he birdied the second, three more bogeys followed before he pulled a shot back on the 11th, and Laird dropped further shots on the 14th and 18th holes to sign for a 75 which dropped him into a share of sixth place overall.
