Sepp Straka got it done on Sunday afternoon.
Straka, after nearly blowing a two-shot lead at the turn, held on late to grab the win at the Truist Championship outside of Philadelphia on Sunday. Straka posted a 2-under 68 on Sunday and, despite making back-to-back bogeys on his back nine, secured a two-shot win over Shane Lowry and the rest of the field.

The win marked Straka’s fourth of his career, and his second in 2025. Only Rory McIlroy has won multiple times on the PGA Tour this season.
As a result of his win, Straka is taking home more than $3.5 million.
The Truist Championship offered a $20 million purse this week, which is standard among the PGA Tour’s Signature Events. It’s close to what the four major championships typically offer, too. The Masters had a $21 million purse last month, for example, which was a record for the event. The CJ Cup Byron Nelson last week had just a $9.9 million purse, which sent Scottie Scheffler home with a $1.782 million check for his win.
Straka has quietly had a very productive 2025 on Tour. He won The American Express in just his third start of the season, and he’s only missed two cuts and not finished worse than T28 since then. Lowry was looking for his first individual title since 2019. His three-putt on the final green, which dropped him into a tie for second with Justin Thomas, cost him $400,000.
Here’s a look at how much Straka and the rest of the field earned at the Philadelphia Cricket Club this week.

Within MLB, a mostly celebratory tone for Pete Rose: ‘He belongs in the Hall of Fame’
In the wake of Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred’s decision to remove Pete Rose from the sport’s permanently ineligible list, multiple active managers said they believed Rose, who was banned from the sport in 1989 for betting on his team while managing the Cincinnati Reds, should be inducted in the Baseball Hall of Fame.Advertisement“Good for Pete,” Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell said. “I’m happy for him. He belongs in the Hall of Fame.”Los Angeles Angels manager Ron Washington, who made his big-league debut in 1977 in a game against Rose, concurred. “I think the game of baseball has to understand that Pete Rose is a Hall of Famer,” Washington said. “There’s no doubt about it. I don’t have anything to say about why he’s not, but it’s obvious he’s a Hall of Famer.”Yankees manager Aaron Boone acknowledged the severity […]
