The 2021 WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational final leaderboard is headed by winner Abraham Ancer, who won his first PGA Tour event with a playoff victory at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tenn.
After a zany back nine for the leaders, Ancer, Sam Burns and Hideki Matsuyama went to a playoff on 16-under 268. All three players made pars on the par-4 18th in the first playoff hole.
On the second playoff hole, also the 18th hole, Ancer made a 6-footer for birdie. Burns, putting on the same line for birdie, missed, giving the title to Matsuyama, who also missed his birdie putt.
Harris English, who shot 40 on the final nine, finished a shot out of the playoff.
Ancer won the $1,820,000 winner's share of the $10,500,000 purse.
