Bryson DeChambeau wins second straight FedEx Cup playoff event; Utahn Tony Finau ties for fourth place

Coming off a four-shot victory last week in New Jersey, the 24-year-old physics major knows as the “Mad Scientist” pulled away with three straight birdies to close out the front nine and kept his distance the rest of the way to win the Dell Technologies Championship on Monday.

DeChambeau closed with a 4-under 67 for a two-shot victory on the TPC Boston, becoming only the second player in the 12 years of the lucrative FedEx Cup to win the opening two playoff events.

Vijay Singh did it in 2008 before the points system was changed to create more volatility.
