Daniel Berger Wins 2017 FedEx St. Jude Classic Despite Phil Mickelson's Rally

Phil Mickelson briefly sent the St. Jude crowd into an uproar by pushing his way to the top of the leaderboard, but it was Daniel Berger who walked away Sunday with the championship.

Berger carded a four-under 66 in his final round to beat out Charl Schwartzel and Meen Whee Kim by one stroke and win the 2017 FedEx St. Jude Classic. The 24-year-old has won the event each of the last two years—his only pair of triumphs on the PGA Tour.

David Toms (2003, '04), Lee Trevino ('71, '72) and Dave Hill ('69, '70) are the only three previous repeat winners.
