“Down, but never out” was the theme for former Aztec men’s golfer Xander Schauffele at the PGA Tour Championship this past weekend at East Lake Golf Course in Atlanta.
Schauffele finished -18 and tied with Justin Thomas for second — three shots back of Tour Champion and FedEx Cup winner Dustin Johnson, who finished at -21.
Johnson is the first No. 1 seed to win the FedEx Cup since Tiger Woods achieved it in 2009.
Entering Monday, Schauffele was trailing by five shots, and got as close as two shots entering the final hole — a par-5 with a possibility to make eagle.
