Joaquin Niemann did not have the closure he expected at the PGA, which today officially ended its 2019-20 season with the last round of the Championship tour, the tournament that brought together the top 30 of the campaign. In Atlanta, the Chilean golfer made a final round of 72 strokes (+2).

With that performance, “Joaco” finished the championship, which started on Friday with differentiated scores, with 283 suits and a +1 total, after having started with -2. Thus, he finished in 27th place, tied with Kevin Na and only above Marc Leishman (+2) and Billy Horschel (+4).

Despite this result, “Joaking” says goodbye with a rather juicy consolation prize. This, because the not inconsiderable sum of 425 thousand dollars.

The prestigious contest distributed nothing more and nothing less than US $ 15 million for the winner. The champion was the American Dustin Johnson, world number one, who took advantage of the score of -10 with which the event began and lifted the FedEx Cup with a cumulative -21, ahead of his compatriots Justin Thomas and Xander Schauffele, both with -18.
