Sam Burns captured the biggest title of his career when he routed Cameron Young 6&5 in the final to win the WGC Match Play Championship.
World number 15 Burns took a $3.5 million top prize at Austin Country Club in Texas by making eight birdies in the last 10 holes to dispatch 17thranked Young, last year's British Open runner-up.
It was the fifth career PGA title for Burns, who won all seven of his matches to become the first player to capture the WGC Match Play in his debut since Australian Geoff Ogilvy in 2006.
"What a week. Man, I'm so tired," Burns said. "I just tried to stack one good swing after another. Really have tried to put the hard work in and it's nice to see it paying off on the golf course."
