Winner: Andrew Landry
Around the wider world of golf: Tommy Gainey won the Bahamas Great Exuma Classic on the Korn Ferry Tour; Lee Westwood got his 25th ET victory at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship; Miguel Angel Jimenez won the Mitsubishi Electric Championship on the Champions Tour; Matt Kuchar won the SMBC Singapore Open on the Japan Golf Tour; and Abel Gallegos became the first Argentinian champion of the Latin America Amateur. And while John Smoltz defended his celebrity title at the Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions, the LPGA's playoff between Gaby Lopez and Nasa Hataoka is yet to be determined and will continue Monday morning at 8am ET on GC. [UPDATE: Gaby won on the seventh playoff hole. ]

My Twofer Tuesday picks struggled again this week. I had Rickie Fowler (T10) and Kevin Kisner (MC). Rickie got me excited after two rounds but lost his putter over the weekend, and Kevin left his whole game back in Hawaii. But at least I got one out of the two right. (Thanks, Rickie!)
- Top10s: 3 for 6 (1 Top5, 2 other Top10s)
- Winners: 0 for 3 events
Sunday he got here out of the gate like a madman, going six-under and bogey-unfastened for the primary 12 holes, racing away from his nearest competitor, Scottie Scheffler. But Abraham Ancer, who started the day farther returned, matched his tempo although it regarded as if he could merely take hold of 2nd.
Then Andrew stumbled. Bogeys on 13, 14 and 15 plus a par at the scoreable par-five 16th, coupled with Ancer's continued bogey-loose fee, left him tied for the lead with most effective holes to play. But Andrew stepped up massive, posting birdies on each 17 and 18 at the same time as Ancer may want to manage only a single birdie on those holes.
Andrew almost made the win look clean.
Now that he's back inside the winner's circle -- with all the bonuses and bling appropriate for a winner -- it seems like he can be in line for some other exquisite 12 months. And simply to ensure he recalls it, I've got this memorable new Limerick Summary to help!
Starting Sunday, he outraced the p.C.;
At the turn, he gave all his lead back!
Though it took him some time
Andrew gained it in style
And this win put his game back on track. The photo came from this page at pgatour.com.
