Carl Pettersson finally gets his first PGA Tour win this year at the Wyndham Championship! His 21-under after four rounds has earned him a great paycheck at $918,000.

He was very much in control of the tournament because he was in the lead for 35 of the last 36 holes. The only hiccup was on the 11th on Sunday when he failed to save par. He even said "Not getting it up and down on 11 kind of (ticked) me off, I kind of told myself, 'I'm letting the tournament get away from me again. That was where the tournament was won for me.

After that hole, he birdied 3 of the next 4 holes to regain control of the lead. By the 13th hole, Pettersson got control back when he was leading by 1 shot. By the 15th, he had a 2-stroke lead. Then he just cruised to victory.
