Peter Malnati won the Sanderson Farms Championship in a Monday finish, continuing the theme of players winning their first PGA Tour events in the first four weeks of the season. Malnati joins Emiliano Grillo (Frys.com), Smylie Kaufman (Shriners), Justin Thomas (CIMB), and Russell Knox (WGC-HSBC Champions).
The former Missouri Tiger shot a final-round 67 which just edged out William McGirt and David Toms by one shot. Here are some key moments from the Monday finish.
