JACKSON, Miss. – Sebastian Munoz made a 15-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole to force a playoff, and then beat Sungjae Im with a par on the first extra hole to win the Sanderson Farms Championship for his first PGA Tour victory.
Munoz, who closed with a 2-under 70, made it two straight weeks for South American winners, following Joaquin Niemann winning last week at the Greenbrier.
"Jaco's win gave me the belief I needed, the little extra belief I'm good enough, I'm here," Munoz said.
Niemann won by six shots at the Greenbrier. Munoz had it far more difficult.
