Well the boy played a decent round but had one big miss - the fifth hole. It made no sense. Total duff on the 130 yard par 3. Hozel shot that went 80 yards left. He hasn't done that in a long time. Second shot went of the back of the green. Third shot was a lob wedge that he chunked. Two putts from there for a nast double. He was +1 on the other eight holes though, good enough for second place.
X3 Tournament Championship - final tour stop. The boy was in 3rd place overall and the only chance he had to win it all was to win the tournament and have both Conner (2nd overall) and Chase (leader) place 7th or lower. That wasn't going to happen. He just had to beat Cruz Cooper (4th overall) outright to maintain his position at 3rd overall - and he did. He birdied holes 3 and 5 and went into the 6th hole at even par. Doubles on 6 and 8 cost him but he finished strong with a par on 9 to end up +5, good enough for 2nd place behind Chase, who finished +3.
