Jason Kokrak takes maiden PGA Tour win in Las Vegas

Jason Kokrak sunk a three-foot birdie putt on the 18th to help secure his maiden PGA Tour win in Las Vegas.

The American started Sunday in second but reached the turn on five under — including four straight birdies — to put pressure on other high fliers at the CJ Cup.

His final putt on the 18th led to a round of 64 and a score of 20 under for the tournament, his 233rd on the tour.

Speaking to the Golf Channel, the 35-year-old said: “I couldn’t be happier.

“The game plan was simple, to hit fairways. I made some nice putts on the front nine and a few par saves here and there.”

Xander Schauffele was the best of the rest, and remained in the hunt until he dropped a shot on the par-5 16th to finish on 18 under, a shot ahead of England’s Tyrrell Hatton and overnight leader Russell Henley.

Rory McIlroy finished tied for 21st at six under, his final round (+2) fell apart late on with two bogeys and two double bogeys on his final five holes. Shane Lowry finished at five under for the tournament leaving him tied for 28th - after an impressive five under par final round 67.
