Robert Streb Wins The RSM Classic in Playoff
After leading after 54-holes, Robert Streb needed two more holes today, the 73rd and 74th of The RSM Classic, to defeat Kevin Kisner in a playoff. Streb earned $1,188,000 and 500 FedEx Cup points after he birdied No. 18 while Kisner shot par four. They had each shot (-19) (263) in regulation, a stroke ahead of Cameron Tringale.
Tringale and Harris English shot eight-under (62) in the final round.
Streb became the fifth consecutive 36-hole leader/co-leader to win The RSM Classic.
(On the victory) - “Yes, it changes my schedule dramatically. I was just trying to get some good tournaments in so I had a better number for the start of the new year. Obviously now I can kind of pick my schedule and choose what I want to do and it just makes things a lot easier,” said Streb.
(On what made the difference for Streb at RSM Classic) - “To me, it was just the putter. I had some pretty good spats of ball-striking in the middle, but I made some putts early and some good par putts the first round, then made a good chunk of them coming down the stretch that got me to 5 under on a pretty windy day the first round. Made a bunch of putts second and third round. I missed a few today, but overall I would say it's the best I putted in a long time,” said Streb in a post tournament media conference call.

The Match is next! Formally known as, “Capitol One’s The Match: Champions for Change,” the fun, charity event will take place instead of a tour event over Thanksgiving Weekend.

The next PGA Tour event is December 3-6 at the Mayakoba Golf Classic in Mexico.
For The Match, Golden State Warriors guard Steph Curry had this to “tweet.”

PGA Tour Week 47 is in the Books. It’s been nothing short of a sensational return to play for the PGA Tour this season.
