Butterfield Bermuda Championship: Lucas Herbert keeps cool to take victory at Port Royal
Aussie clinches his first win on the PGA Tour after scoring a one-shot success over fast-finishing Patrick Reed and New Zealand’s Danny Lee.
Lucas Herbert held his nerve down the stretch to score a breakthrough first win on American soil thanks to a one-shot victory at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship.
That was one in front of Patrick Reed and Danny Lee while halfway leader Patrick Rodgers was a further shot back in fourth.
A first-time winner on TOUR. 🏆

Herbert moved to the turn in 1-under and went birdie-bogey-birdie from 12-14 to emerge one shot clear with four to play.
But the Canadian found water twice and a double bogey seven relegated him to tied fifth with Scott Stallings, who shot the round of the day, a brilliant 62.
