Vienna – Sunday, November 22, 2020, 10:38 p.m.
A week after his mediocre performance at the Augusta Golf Masters (58th place), Bernd Wiesberger achieved his best result yet on the PGA Tour of the United States.
The 35-year-old from Burgenland finished fourth in the $ 6.6 million RSM Classic in Sea Island, Georgia on Sunday. After a flawless final round with 63 shots (7 under par), Wiesberger rose to the top with just two shots.
The three-time winner of the 2019 European Tour enters the tournament, which is played in two venues, with a total score of 265 strokes (17 under par). In fourth place, he surpassed his best previous result of the season, a fifth place in the relatively small Handa UK Championship (€ 1 million) at the end of August.
This means that Wiesberger will also improve from 39th place in the world rankings. The game year began, which was interrupted by the pandemic, on the 22nd.
Robert Streb secured victory in the tiebreaker against fellow American Kevin Kisner, who earned a higher rating. The 33-year-old, who had led before the final round, celebrates his second PGA victory thanks to a birdie on the second extra hole. After four rounds, both players had 263 hits (19 under par).
Sepp Straka, who lives in the United States, lands in 44th place with 274 strokes (8 under par).
