Notes
After being the last player to get into the field (third alternate), Nate Lashley won the inaugural Rocket Mortgage Classic by six shots over Doc Redman to earn first PGA TOUR victory in wire-to-wire fashion. Lashley became the first alternate to win on TOUR since Vaughn Taylor at the 2016 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
Both champion Nate Lashley and runner-up Doc Redman competed in the Monday Qualifier. Lashley failed to advance and got in as an alternate when David Berganio, Jr., withdrew on Wednesday, while Redman was the medalist.
Nate Lashley's win, the first of his PGA TOUR career, came at the age of 36 years, 6 months, 18 days in his 33rd start. Lashley's 72-hole total of 263 topped his previous career-best by eight shots (271/2019 Desert Classic).
With his six-shot win, Nate Lashley became the seventh player since the start of the 2016-17 season to win by six shots or more, joining Dustin Johnson (2), Michael Kim, Hideki Matsuyama, Francesco Molinari, Rory McIlroy and Justin Thomas.
Prior to Nate Lashley's final-round 70, the last two players to win after shooting 70 or higher in the final round were Tiger Woods (2019 Masters Tournament) and Brooks Koepka (2019 PGA Championship).
After advancing through the Monday Qualifier, Doc Redman finished second, earning enough non-member FedExCup points to qualify for Special Temporary Membership.
Cameron Champ (T46) shot a front-nine 28 in the second round, becoming the third player on the season to shoot 28 or better on nine holes (Chez Reavie, Carlos Ortiz). Champ played the first seven holes in 7-under, becoming the first player to shoot 7-under or better on the first seven holes of a round since Ted Potter, Jr. at the 2018 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. Champ's birdie/eagle streak of 7-under (Nos. 2-7) topped his previous career-best (5-under/R1/2018 The RSM Classic), while his previous career-best front-nine score was 31 (R2/2018 Mayakoba Golf Classic).
