Tournament of Champions 2021: Harris English Defeats Joaquin Niemann in Playoff

Harris English is a PGA Tour event winner for the first time since 2013.

English defeated Joaquin Niemann in a playoff hole during the final round of the 2021 Sentry Tournament of Champions on Sunday at Kapalua Resort in Hawaii. He forced the playoff with a dramatic birdie on the final hole, pulling even at minus-25 for the tournament.

In fact, he had an eagle putt on that 18th hole to win the tournament outright after an incredible second shot on the par five, but he left it just wide.

It was no matter as he parlayed the momentum from playing that hole so well while Niemann tried to stay warm while watching and won the playoff hole.
