Jason Dufner survives the elements, wins the Memorial Tournament

Jason Dufner seemed headed toward a wire-to-wire win in his home state at Muirfield Village, but an ugly 77 in his third round erased his lead and broke the tournament wide open. On a blustery, cold and rainy Sunday at the Memorial, Dufner rebounded from his forgettable round with some clutch shots down the stretch to beat a small group of the world’s best just behind him.

The final round was temporarily suspended as the leaders were midway through their rounds due to lightning in the area, and after a long break, rain started to come down with just a few holes left to play.
