Jhonattan Vegas ended a seven-year drought with a thrilling victory at the 3M Open at TPC Twin Cities. Battling through persistent shoulder pain, Vegas sank a crucial birdie putt on the 18th hole to secure a one-shot win, finishing at 17-under par.

This marked his fourth PGA TOUR victory and first since 2017, following a challenging period marred by elbow and shoulder injuries. The win catapulted Vegas from 149th to 66th in the FedExCup standings, likely earning him a spot in the Playoffs.

It also granted him exemptions into prestigious tournaments and secured his TOUR status through 2026. Motivated by a desire to win for his young son and family, Vegas' triumph showcased the transformative potential of a single week on the PGA TOUR, reinvigorating his career and proving his resilience in the face of adversity.

RAHM’S LIV BREAKTHROUGH

Jon Rahm clinched his first LIV Golf victory at the UK event, edging out teammate Tyrrell Hatton in a dramatic finish at JCB Golf & Country Club. The win marks a turnaround in Rahm's 2024 season, which had been marred by disappointing major performances since joining LIV.

Despite consistent top-10 finishes in LIV events, this victory provides validation for Rahm's controversial move from the PGA Tour. Shooting a final-round 67, Rahm finished at 13 under par, emotionally dedicating the win to his family after a challenging year personally. This triumph not only ends Rahm's drought but also bolsters his standing in the evolving landscape of professional golf.
