Mackenzie Hughes rode a hot putter to become the first rookie in 20 years to win wire to wire on the PGA Tour. Using his Ping Scottsdale TR Piper C center-shafted putter, Hughes ranked second in strokes gained/putting for the week at 2.054 and won the five-way playoff with an 18-foot par putt from just off the green that earned him the victory after the other three remaining players missed par putts of their own.
