Trainer rallies for first Tour title in Puerto Rico
Despite struggling through the early part of the season, PGA Tour rookie Martin Trainer rallied to win for the first time on Tour at the Puerto Rico Open.
Trainer started the final round alone in third place, two shots behind Aaron Baddeley, but closed with four birdies in his final 10 holes for a closing 67. That gave him a three-shot victory over a group that included Baddeley, Daniel Berger, Johnson Wagner and Roger Sloan.
"I could never have imagined that this would ever happen," Trainer said. "But it happened today, and it's just incredible. It's been a long journey, for me at least."
