Bernd Wiesberger achieved his best result yet on the US PGA tour. 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 moved up to two shots at the top. Robert Streb secured victory in the tiebreaker against fellow American Kevin Kisner.

The three-time winner of the 2019 European Tour achieved a total score of 265 strokes (17 under par) in the two-seat tournament. As fourth, he surpassed his best previous result of the season, a fifth place finish 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. He began the year of play, interrupted by the pandemic, in 22nd place. Sepp Straka, who lives in the United States, landed in 44th place with 274 strokes (8 under par).
