Christiaan Bezuidenhout carded his second two-under-par 68 of the week on Sunday as he finished inside the top 20 of the PGA Tour’s Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas.
It was a topsy-turvy closing nine for Bezuidenhout who made three birdies and three bogeys on his way home, after making three birdies and one bogey on the front nine. His two-under-par total for the week left him some way off the winning total of 14-under-par.
Davis Riley shot even-par 70 while playing in the final group with Scottie Scheffler, and still won the tournament by five strokes over the world’s number one player and Keegan Bradley for his first individual victory on the PGA Tour.
Riley finished at 14-under 266 after rolling in a six-foot par putt on the final hole. Bradley had a closing 67, and Scheffler shot 71 on a day when he hit only seven of 14 fairways and didn’t have a birdie until the 13th hole.
Bezuidenhout was projected to rise one spot on the FedExCup rankings to 29th with his share of 17th.
