Golf: DeChambeau wins in Las Vegas; Rose back to world No.1
2018-11-05 

Bryson DeChambeau holed an eagle putt from just inside 60 feet on the 16th hole that carried him to a 5-under 66 and a one-shot victory over Patrick Cantlay in the Shriners Hospital for Children Open on Sunday.

DeChambeau won for the fourth time in his last 12 starts on the PGA Tour and moved to No. 5 in the world ranking.

He had to survive a wild back nine at the TPC Summerlin in which four players had a share of the lead at some point. Cantlay, trying to become the first player to win back-to-back in Las Vegas in nearly 20 years, made a 15-foot birdie putt on the par-5 16th hole to take a one-shot lead. But from a bunker right of the green on the par-3 17th, Cantlay was fooled by the amount of sand under his ball and flubbed the shot.

One hole behind him, DeChambeau rolled in his long eagle putt from just off the green and celebrated with a big uppercut. Cantlay missed his long par putt, giving DeChambeau control of the tournament.

Cantlay birdied the 18th for a 65, but it wasn't enough when DeChambeau played the final two holes conservatively for pars to finish at 21-under 263.

DeChambeau won for the third straight season, and fifth time overall on the PGA Tour.

Earlier in the day, England's Justin Rose beat China's Li Haotong in a play-off to win the Turkish Open.

The victory means Rose has reclaimed the world number one ranking with his 19th career win.

Li Haotong had been three shots ahead into the last day, but he missed a key putt on the 18th hole, which could've lifted him to the championship, before he leveled with Rose at 17-under par and went into the play off.

The 23-year-old then bogeyed the extra hole and lost.
