Sungjae Im bests Bear Trap, takes Honda Classic for first PGA Tour win

With a final-round 66 and two late birdies, Sungjae Im won his first PGA Tour title Sunday, edging Mackenzie Hughes and Tommy Fleetwood down the stretch at the Honda Classic. Here’s how Im got the best of the Bear Trap:

Leaderboard: Im (-6), Hughes (-5), Fleetwood (-4), Brendan Steele (-4), Ben An (-3), Daniel Berger (-3), Lee Westwood (-3), Brendan Steele (-3)

What it means: This is Im’s first PGA Tour victory in his 50th career start. The reigning Rookie of the Year has quickly asserted himself as the game’s ironman, traveling each week from tournament to tournament and living out of hotel rooms without a home base in the United States.
