Steven Alker wins the Rogers Charity Classic in a playoff

Steven Alker claimed victory at the Rogers Charity Classic, clinching his second win of the year and his 12th overall on the PGA Tour Champions. The triumph came in a playoff setting, as he edged out Y.E. Yang by a razor-thin margin. With a crucial 7-foot birdie putt from the first hole during the playoff, Alker secured the championship title.

Displaying remarkable skill, Alker closed out the tournament with a score of 5-under 65, matching his opponent Yang at 16-under 194. Yang, on the other hand, shot a 63 during the final round. Alker, hailing from New Zealand, also claimed the Cologuard Classic in March in Tucson, Arizona, defeating Padraig Harrington in a sudden-death playoff.

Jerry Kelly and Zach Johnson shared the third place positions, with Kelly finishing at 63 and Johnson at 65. Second-round leader Ryan Armour, posting a 69, tied for fifth place, marking an overall score of 13 under.
