Tom Kim is a winner in Las Vegas again. It was a wild finish in the Shriners Children's Open. At one point there was a six-way tie for the lead with 12 players separated by one shot. Kim emerged with a 66 to defeat Adam Hadwin by one shot. It's his third PGA Tour title at age 21. He's the youngest to do that since Tiger Woods.
LAS VEGAS — Tom Kim now has something in common with Byron Nelson as the only players to have won the same PGA Tour event twice in the same season.
“I really felt confident in myself,” Kim said. “I knew that if I did me I was going to be able to do it. I’m stoked to get this one.”Koepka shoots a 62 and builds a 3-shot lead in his LIV Golf title defense Taylor Pendrith was tied for the lead with a birdie on the 13th, but had to settle for pars the rest of that stretch. K.H. Lee made all pars.
It turned on the par-5 16th. Kim hit to the fat of the green in two, 50 feet away for eagle. Hadwin knew he missed his shot right after contact and it came up well short and into the water. Hadwin missed a 6-foot par putt after his penalty drop, and Kim three-putted — he had to make a 5-footer on his third one — for par.
That gave Kim a two-shot lead with two to play, and he closed with solid pars. Kim finished at 20-under 264.
