Anirban Lahiri started his final round with a birdie-birdie flourish and went all out to attempt another top-10 showing at the 2017 Travelers Championship. His first six holes saw four birdies and two bogeys, but then putts became difficult to come by and he managed only two more birdies against one bogey for a card of three-under 67.

His total of six-under 274 saw Lahiri finish tied-17th following up on his previous finish of tied-2nd at the Memorial Open. He has two top-three finishes now and another three in the top-20. He is now 43rd in the FedEx Cup rankings.

Lahiri had birdies on the first, second, fourth, sixth, 13th holes and 15th and bogeyed the third, fifth and 16th holes. Meanwhile, there was a dramatic finish at the top as Jordan Spieth holed out from the bunker for a birdie and the win in a sudden death playoff on the par-4 18th hole.

That extra hole and a bit of luck helped Spieth finish off a wire-to-wire victory. The two-time major champion holed out from 60 feet for birdie from a greenside bunker on the first hole of a playoff with Daniel Berger.

The 23-year-old Texan joined Tiger Woods as the only PGA Tour players with 10 victories in the era since World War II. Woods won 15 times before he turned 24.
