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.

Pete Rose and his decades-long quest for reinstatement: A timeline
The long saga of Pete Rose’s betting on baseball goes back over 40 years, taking multiple twists and turns before finally reaching its latest end point: Rose’s reinstatement to baseball. While much of the fireworks came in 1989, the year Rose agreed to a lifetime ban, the back-and-forth persisted for decades as Rose made numerous attempts at reinstatement while also revealing details about his betting.Aug. 15, 1984Rose returns to Cincinnati as player/managerRose was 21 years into his playing career when he returned to Cincinnati, the city where he’d been born and raised and played his first 16 major-league seasons. After stints with the Philadelphia Phillies and Montreal Expos, Rose came back to the Reds with three World Series rings, 16 All-Star selections and more than 4,000 hits. He was immediately named player/manager. It was his first managerial job. Rose would […]
Boston přišel o svou největší hvězdu. Tatum podstoupil operaci
Boston prohrál čtvrtý zápas s Knicks 113:121 a je krok od vyřazení. V sérii ztrácí 1:3, pátý duel je na programu ve středu v Bostonu. Absence jedné z hlavních opor, která vede týmové statistiky v počtu bodů (28,1), doskoků (11,5) i asistencí (5,4) na zápas, je pro ambice Celtics na obrat velkou ranou.Sedmadvacetiletý Tatum se zranil tři minuty před koncem při snaze zachránit ztracený míč. Olympijský vítěz z Paříže, který do té doby nastřílel 42 bodů, se s bolestivou grimasou držel za kotník a ze hřiště mu museli pomoci spoluhráči. Halu opustil na vozíku.Jayson Tatum today underwent successful surgery to repair a ruptured right Achilles tendon. No timetable is currently available for his return, but he is expected to make a full recovery.
