Davis Thompson blitzed TPC Deere Run in Illinois, setting a tournament scoring record of 28-under 256, besting Michael Kim’s 2017 record of 27 under. He won by four shots in his 63rd career start over a group of three players at 24 under.
Thompson earned $1.44 million with the win in addition to 500 FedEx Cup points. He also punched his ticket to the 2024 Open Championship at Royal Troon in two weeks.
Thompson is also the 24th golfer to earn his first career win at the John Deere Classic, which is the most of any event in PGA Tour history.
🤯The Trophy House Mystery: For the third straight year at the John Deere Classic, the winner has stayed at the same house. In 2022, J.T. Poston took home the title while staying at the property while last year, Sepp Straka was in a group of golfers who rented the house, and he won.
This year, Thompson was in the group who rented the house. He even stayed in the same room that Straka did.
Straka opted for a hotel room with his wife and new baby, while Thompson found himself traveling solo while his wife, Holly Grace, served as a bridesmaid back home.
🚨Record Alert: Luke Clanton fired an 8-under 63, his second sub-65 round of the tournament, to tie Michael Thorbjornsen and C.T. Pan at 24 under and finish second. The Florida State rising junior became the first amateur since Billy Joe Patton in 1958 to notch top-10s in back-to-back Tour starts.
While Clanton failed to qualify for The Open, he will compete in next week’s ISCO Championship in Kentucky, his third PGA Tour start in as many weeks.
