CROMWELL, CT (SNN-TV) – Xander Schauffele celebrated his one-year wedding anniversary Sunday with a dramatic victory in the Travelers Championship in Cromwell, Connecticut.
The Olympic champion won with a three-stroke swing on the final hole, hitting to 3 feet for birdie after rookie Sahith Theegala took two shots to get out of a bunker and made a double-bogey in the group ahead.
A stroke in front entering the day, Schauffele finished with a 2-under 68 at TPC River Highlands to beat Theegala and J.T. Poston by two strokes. Schauffele had a 19-under 261 total.
Schauffele won for the sixth time on the PGA Tour and the second time this season after teaming with Patrick Cantlay to win the Zurich Classic of New Orleans in April.
