Helen Ross narrates the story of how C.T. Pan engineered a strong close Sunday in Hilton Head, S.C., to finish the four-round RBC Heritage tournament at 12-under par and earn his first career PGA Tour title.
And as he sat in the media center wearing the RBC Heritage’s trademark tartan jacket, Pan later acknowledged that the near-miss at Sedgefield last year played a big role in Sunday’s victory.
“It definitely changed my perception on the last couple of holes down the stretch of what I should do,” he said. “The last three holes I would say I played really well here, a lot of good shots just because I told myself I need to focus on the details, the little things, and just stay in present.
