Top quote - Xander Schauffele

"I think it honestly just changed my life, really. I need a little bit of time to take it all in," Schauffele told Dottie Pepper of CBS after the victory.

Best round - Ryan Blaum

Blaum moved up 13 spots into a tie for seventh on Sunday, making six birdies and no bogeys in his final-round 64.

Shot of the day - Schauffele at the 72nd hole

The rookie was tied at 13-under with Robert Streb, but dropped his 161-yard tee shot within three feet, then made the putt to take the lead for good.

Biggest disappointment - Sebastian Munoz

The 54-hole leader went out in 3-over par, and was never able to recover from the slow start, finishing with a 72. Munoz fell into a tie for third place with Jamie Lovemark, but the result did give him a spot in the Open Championship at Royal Birkdale.

Stat - Zero

Munoz's inability to win on Sunday meant no 54-hole leader has gone on to claim victory in the seven-year history of the event.
