PGA Tour : Rocket Mortgage Classic Leaderboard Course Stats
My old coach used to say after a close loss, " There can only be one winner, but today there were no losers"
Certainly that was the case for Adam Hadwin this weekend, especially after he followed a tournament record Saturday 63, with a 67 Sunday and the chart topping -24. (66 68 63 67)
Adam Hadwin
As it turned out Rickie Fowler and Collin Morikawa were on the same number, thus the 3 way playoff.
Both Morikawa with a 12 footer, and Hadwin with a 15 foot chip had their chance to win outright with Fowler left the runner up. However both did not fall, the old adage "a game of inches"..
Adam's 25 footer for birdie on the playoff hole looked in all the way, but this time it just rolled past, importantly Fowler was on the same line, and got a great read, which he used to win minutes later, his first in 4 years, following several week's of fine play at the US Open and the Travelers where he led after 54 holes.
The win worth $1,584,000 and 500 FedEx points.
Hadwin's game was as good as it gets, driving well, accurate iron play and a hot putter albeit on a soft Detroit GC. The T2 result worth $783,200
" I'm through the roof right now, I mean I got myself into a playoff at the end of the day, that's what we all want, a chance, a chance to win a golf tournament "
Taylor Pendrith T14 67 64 67 73 -17 $160,600
Adam Svensson T40 71 67 71 68 -11 $33,000
