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.

Why were Pete Rose and ‘Shoeless’ Joe Jackson originally banned from baseball and not in the Hall of Fame?
Getty Images MLB commissioner Rob Manfred has removed Pete Rose, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and 14 other dead players from the league's permanently ineligible list. The decision comes 36 years after Rose was initially banned and 104 years after Jackson was banned.Rose died in September 2024 at the age of 83, and attorney Jeffrey Lenkov filed a petition to remove Rose's permanent ban. In a letter to Lenkov, Manfred said the permanently ineligible list no longer applies to deceased former players."Obviously, a person no longer with us cannot represent a threat to the integrity of the game," Manfred wrote. "Moreover, it is hard to conceive of a penalty that has more deterrent effect than one that lasts a lifetime with no reprieve. Therefore, I have concluded that permanent ineligibility ends upon the passing of the disciplined individual, and Mr. Rose will […]
