NICHOLASVILLE, Ky. -- Jim Herman rode President Donald Trump's putting advice to victory Sunday in the PGA Tour's Barbasol Championship.
Taking advantage of playing partner Kelly Kraft's two late bogeys, Herman finished with a 2-under 70 for a one-stroke victory at Keene Trace. A shot ahead with three to play, Kraft bogeyed the par-3 16th and par-4 17th in a closing 70.
Trump's regular golf partner while working as an assistant professional at Trump National Bedminster in New Jersey, Herman changed to a conventional putting grip and clubhead at the president's suggestion following a recent round.
