What winning BMW PGA Championship means for Billy Horschel

 DP World Tour : BMW PGA Championship Results

edit ***Now a big time supporter of West Ham in the English Premier league American Billy Horschel who lives in Florida, engraced himself further amongst the British public, with his 2nd victory at the DP World Tour flagship event at Wentworth, the BMW PGA Championship.

Billy Horschel

His playoff win over Rory McIIlroy and South African Thirston Lawrence was a proper golf tournament, on a historic albeit soft course. Great play by great players, with drama and excitement right until the last putt. Rory and Billy embraced in true gentlemanly fashion, and were gracious in victory and defeat. 

Here are the results for Horschel.

• His third DP World Tour title in his 82nd appearance and his first since his 2021 BMW PGA Championship victory, three years and ten days ago

• Just the third win for a player from the United States at the BMW PGA Championship following his own victory and Arnold Palmer in 1975, when the event was played at Royal St George’s Golf Club

• The first American to win a Rolex Series title with his victory at Wentworth in 2021

• Move up to third on the Race to Dubai Rankings in Partnership with Rolex on 2,480 points, up from 22nd

• Rises to 17th on the Official World Golf Ranking, up from 24th

• His third top ten in the 2024 DP World Tour season after he finished tied second at The Open and tied eighth at the US PGA Championship

• He has eight PGA TOUR victories, most recently at the 2024 Corales Puntacana Championship, and won the FedEx Cup in 2014

• The seventh win for an American player on the 2024 Race to Dubai following Xander Schauffele (The Open, US PGA Championship), Nick Dunlap (Barracuda Championship), Bryson DeChambeau (U.S. Open), Scottie Scheffler (The Masters) and Jordan Gumberg (SDC Championship)

• The 268th win by a player from the United States on the DP World Tour
