Once again the winner of the PGA Tour event was determined in a playoff. There has certainly been a lot of fierce competition this summer where these incredibly talented golfers refuse to lose and force a playoff. This past Sunday was incredible; the day began with Patrick Cantlay and Bryson Dechambeau tied at 21-under par and both shot a 66 to head into a six-hole playoff. Officials started to wonder if there was going to be enough daylight to settle this intense battle.
Dechambeau had an amazing week at the BMW Championship at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Md.: He shot a 60, made 27 birdies, had four eagles and he was No. 1 in driving. But, he became the first golfer ever to shoot a 27-under or less through 72 holes and lose on the PGA Tour.
