In particular, he shot a 6-under-par 64 in the final round to secure a three-shot victory at 21-under 258. It marked his second career win and came 10 months after his previous victory at the Bank of Utah Championship in October 2025. The winner\u2019s prize amounts to $1.53 million (approximately KRW 2.16 billion).<\/p>\n<p>Brennan, whose participation in the first round of the FedExCup Playoffs\u2014the FedEx St. Jude Championship (total prize money of $20 million)\u2014had been in doubt, created a comeback drama by capturing the title in the last tournament of the season. He climbed up to 47th in the FedExCup rankings, securing his spot in the playoffs.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the four days of the Wyndham Championship, Brennan delivered consistently solid shots. His tee shots were particularly impressive, using a Titleist GT3 driver (9 degrees)\u2014a club known for its exceptional distance and forgiveness. He ranked 6th in average driving distance at 329.30 yards, was tied for 23rd in fairways hit at 69.64%, and tied for 3rd in greens in regulation at 83.33%. He averaged 1.63 putts per hole, tied for 2nd. After his victory, Brennan smiled broadly, saying, &#8220;Now I get to go to the Masters next year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>      Hot Picks Today<br \/>\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.asiae.co.kr\/en\/article\/2026081114441098608\" title=\"&quot;Please, Get This for Me in Korea&quot;: Japanese Demand Soars...
