OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Frankie Harris made an 18-foot birdie putt on the final hole for a 12-under 59 and won the Pinnacle Bank Championship on Sunday with a par on second playoff hole for his first Korn Ferry Tour title in only his sixth start this year.
Harris shot 27 on the back nine of The Club at Indian Creek by making just over 153 feet of putts. Alistair Docherty birdied his last four holes, including a 53-foot putt on the 16th, for a 64 to force a playoff at 22-under 262.
On the 18th for the second playoff hole, Docherty went long of the green, chipped to 6 feet and missed the par putt.
Harris became the fourth player in the last six weeks with a 59. He became the ninth player worldwide to have a sub-60 final round and win the tournament.
Harris, who ended his college career at South Carolina, finished at No. 9 in the PGA Tour University ranking. That gave him conditional status on the Korn Ferry Tour and full status on the PGA Tour Americas.
The victory moved him to No. 29 on the points list. The top 20 earn PGA Tour cards for 2027.
