The 2022 RSM Classic came to an end on Sunday with Canada's Adam Svensson taking the win. The 28-year-old earned his first-ever win in his 70th PGA Tour start, emerging victorious by defeating Callum Tarren, Brian Harman and Sahith Theegala, who settled for a three-way T2.
Svensson played the best final round of his career as he made two late clutch birdies. He sealed the deal with a two-shot victory at 19 under. With the win, Svensson now heads into the American circuit’s thanksgiving break as a first-time PGA Tour and RSM Classic winner.
It is pertinent to note that Patrick Rodgers and Ben Martin shared a 54-hole lead at 14 under par. The duo were looking strong to win the RSM Classic title. However, they struggled to continue to set the pace at Sea Island Resort on the final day, as Svensson picked up his form. The Canadian swept the final round clean.
