The Swede accounted for seven birdies and one bogey and landed in 65 strokes, which meant that he climbed eight places in the final round.
In total, there were 266 strokes for all four rounds, two more than the winner Tom Kim from South Korea.
Ludvig Åberg also made a strong effort in the last round and climbed 29 places to a shared thirteenth place. It was all the worse for Henrik Norlander, who lost eleven places and finished in a shared 35th place.
This year’s edition of the tournament in Las Vegas attracted a lot of attention because American Lexi Thompson participated, as only the seventh woman in history to play on the PGA Tour. But she did not pass the qualification limit to advance after initial rounds.
In 2003, Annika Sörenstam was the first female player since 1945 to play in a PGA competition with the men.
