The golf world was abuzz on Sunday as Erik van Rooyen won the World Wide Technology Championship with an 18-stroke lead after Matt Kuchar’s meltdown. It was a stunning victory for the South African golfer, who had been in contention for the title all week.
Van Rooyen had been playing consistently well throughout the tournament, but it was his performance on Sunday that sealed the deal. He shot a final round of 67, which was enough to give him a comfortable 18-stroke lead over Kuchar. Kuchar, who had been leading the tournament going into Sunday, had a disastrous round and ended up finishing in a tie for fourth place.
The win was a huge moment for Van Rooyen, who had been trying to break through on the PGA Tour for some time. He had previously won two European Tour events, but this was his first win on the PGA Tour. It was also his first win in a World Golf Championship event, which is one of the most prestigious tournaments in golf.
Van Rooyen’s victory was made even more impressive by the fact that he was able to hold off a strong field of players. The tournament featured some of the best golfers in the world, including Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy, and Justin Rose.
The win was a huge moment for Van Rooyen and one that he will surely remember for a long time. It was also a reminder that he is one of the best golfers in the world and that he can compete with the best players in the game. It will be interesting to see what he does next as he looks to continue his success on the PGA Tour.
