The leaderboard was very congested on Sunday, with there being a tie for first when the final group teed off and 11 players within three strokes of the top. Ultimately, Cam Davis prevailed as the winner after Akshay Bhatia bogeyed the final hole.

Several players finished outside the top 20 but had notable, praise-worthy performances. It was a quality weekend of golf thanks to Joel Dahmen, Ryo Hisatsune, Rickie Fowler, Jake Knapp, Ben James (amateur), Peter Malnati, and others.

All the golfers who made the cut finished below par. Despite some hiccups in the latter rounds, the worst score was a one-under from Malnati. The course at Detroit Golf Club proved to be no match for the field this weekend.

Overall, everyone played very well. The cut was made at three under par, which speaks to the quality of everyone's play. Even players who had scored fairly well after two rounds were removed from the competition.

That included Miles Russell. The wunderkind golf phenom made his debut on the PGA Tour at just 15 years old. He shot two over in the first round and two under in the second round to break even but missed the cut (four under). He was joined by:

• Keith Mitchell
• Michael Thorbjornsen
• Tom Kim
• Francesco Molinari
• Webb Simpson
• Stephan Jaeger

Coming into play, Tom Kim was the betting favorite but was just outside the cut line on Friday evening. Will Zalatoris, Alejandro Tosti, and David Lipsky withdrew from the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
