Sepp Straka began the final round of the Honda Classic in Florida trailing by five shots. Despite the odds, the Austrian golfer delivered a remarkable performance to claim his maiden PGA Tour win. He carded a solid -4 66 amid challenging weather conditions in Palm Beach Gardens. Straka’s late surge, highlighted by three birdies in the final five holes, including a crucial birdie in the rain on the 18th, secured him a one-shot victory over Shane Lowry.
Heading into the tournament ranked #176 globally, Straka now earns a coveted spot in the Masters tournament in Georgia, offering him a chance for further success. Following Straka and Lowry were Kurt Kitayama and Daniel Berger, who missed opportunities to clinch the title.
