2017 Greenbrier Classic results: Xander Schauffele birdies final hole to win

Xander Schauffele sank a three-foot birdie putt on the final hole for a one-shot victory at the Greenbrier Classic on Sunday in White Sulphur Springs, W.Va.

The PGA Tour rookie finished with a 3-under-par 67 for a 72-hole total of 14-under 266 in his first PGA Tour victory.

Robert Streb came up just short after a 69 left him at 13 under after 72 holes.

Sebastian Munoz fell into a tie for third at 12 under with Jamie Lovemark after a closing 72. Lovemark finished with a 69.

Munoz was trying for a wire-to-wire win after leading after the first three rounds.

Schauffele is the third rookie to win for the first time on the PGA Tour stop in West Virginia.

"It's slowly sinking in," the 23-year-old Schauffele said. "I had a couple minutes to myself in the locker room, but it's just been an incredible feeling and it's honestly just a dream come true."

Schauffele's tee shot at the par-3 18th to set up the closing birdie putt was the key.

"My caddie and I, we looked at a pitching wedge and 9-iron and, under the gun, you never want to swing something soft, so we grabbed the pitching wedge real quick," Schauffele said.

It turned out to be the right club for Schauffele, who finished fifth last month at the U.S. Open.

"The U.S. Open was a huge moment in my career," Schauffele said. "It was one of the biggest stages, and for me to be calm and collected throughout the week and just kind of hang on and tie for fifth was huge for me mentally. It kind of gave me the confidence and allowed me to play to win this week."

Streb needed to birdie on the final hole to force a playoff, but his chip shot from the left rough came up short and he had to settle for par.

"A little frustrating," Streb said. "But Xander obviously hit a great shot there on the last hole."

Munoz's bid was undone by four bogeys on the front nine. He was tied for the lead after Streb birdied No. 14, but Munoz was hurt by a bogey on the par-4 16th hole.

"I'll take it as a positive," Munoz said. "It's my best finish ever. It's not like I can be mad about it."

Lovemark recovered from a double-bogey start for his fourth top-10 finish this seson.

Davis Love III's quest to become to become the oldest winner on the PGA Tour fell short. The 53-year-old entered the day four shots out of the lead but bogeyed his first two holes and finished with a 75 to tie for 29th at 5 under.
