It was monumentous for Potgieter as he outlasted Max Greyserman and Chris Kirk in the playoff. It was Greyserman who pushed Potgieter the most as they both made par on their first three holes and matched each other’s birdie on the fourth.

Aldrich Potgieter became the 7th-youngest PGA Tour winner since the start of 1983, and the youngest player from South Africa ever to win on Tour.

Potgieter carried a two-shot lead into the final round but bogeyed two of his first five holes to allow the pack to catch up.
