POTOMAC, Md. — Francesco Molinari delivered a record performance on Sunday in winning the final edition of the Quicken Loans National.
Molinari, of Italy, holed a 50-foot eagle putt to start the back nine, and he never stopped until he turned the final round into a runaway at the TPC Potomac at Avenel Farm. He closed with an eight-under-par 62 for an eight-shot victory, matching the largest margin this year on the PGA Tour.
Molinari followed that eagle putt with an approach to 2 feet on No. 11, one of the hardest par 4s on tour and one that had yielded only one other birdie in the final round.
