Tim Markel made a valiant attempt at a record 4th win in a row and tied Tom Moran for 2nd at 3 over Par. Corey McCue tied Greg Kline for 4th. Fitzpatrick ‘played in’ to a Commissioner’s Cup spot as did Moran. Corey McCue finished 4th for the 10th time in his career. Kline remained 5th in all-time West Champ winnings. Markel moves to 3rd all-time behind Joe Robar in Rick Persichetti. Fitzpatrick earned a 10th Top-4 career finish, a 2nd win in 40 Tour Starts, both of which have been majors, and leaped to the #1 World Ranking.
