FedExCup Fall Season: Indian-American golfer Sahith Theegala was unable to find that extra zip on the final day and shot even par 72 that sufficed only for a tied-seventh place at the Procore Championship, the FedExCup Fall season’s opening event.

Theegala, the winner last year, closed with a 72 to tie for fifth at 12-under 276. He shot 69-66-69-72 and was 12-under 276, finishing eight shots behind the winner, Patton Kizzire.

Kizzire, meanwhile, returned to the winner’s circle after a long gap shooting a scrambling 2-under 70 for a tournament-record, five-stroke victory. Kizzire had gone 176 events without a victory after winning events in Mexico and Hawaii in two months in late 2017 and early 2018.
