Kizzire takes OHL Classic on a marathon Sunday
American Patton Kizzire battled through numerous weather delays to capture his first PGA Tour title on Sunday by winning the OHL Classic at Mayakoba on a 36-hole final day.
Kizzire fired a 4-under 67 in the final round at the Playa del Carmen course in Mexico to edge American compatriot Rickie Fowler by one stroke with a 19-under 265, capping a tournament that was delayed for over seven hours because of thunderstorms. The 31-year-old Kizzire won his first tournament in 63 US Tour appearances by holding a share of the lead after each round. “I was glad to get it done,” Kizzire said. “Rickie made me work hard.” He shot a 66 in the third round early on Sunday morning then returned in the afternoon to close it out with a 67. Fowler also fired a 67 and finished the tournament at 18-under. He shot a 65 in the opening round and posted 67s in each of the final three rounds. By winning the event, Kizzire clinched a two-year exemption on the PGA Tour along with spots in the field at the Tournament of Champions at Kapalua and the Masters and PGA Championship.
