It’s common to refer to the John Deere Classic as a shootout, but like all of the others that are tagged with the same label, they’re more like four sprints around the track with the anchor leg determining the outcome.
Such was the case at TPC Deere Run on Sunday where Sepp Straka closed with a 9-under 62 that he walked off with a double-bogey 6, and he still won by two at 21-under 263 to claim 500 FedExCup points and $1.332 million. It conjures images of Usain Bolt slowing ahead of the finish line and still establishing another record. En route to his second PGA TOUR title, Straka was in the seventh-to-last twosome in the final round, proving that thoroughbreds always have extra fuel in the tank.
