Day four report


Billy Horschel won a play-off for the AT&T Byron Nelson after Jason Day missed a short par putt on the first extra hole.

Both men had finished at 12-under, but it was Horschel who collected his fourth PGA Tour title - and first since 2014 - when his opponent pulled his attempt from four feet.

James Hahn, who came within inches of joining the pair at 12-under when his wedge approach to the final hole of regulation play lipped out, finished alone in third.

Halfway leader Jason Kokrak took fourth ahead of a four-way tie for fifth, which included our 66/1 tip Byeong-hun An and the in-form Bud Cauley.

From an early stage in the final round it became clear that the final three-ball would produce the winner, and it was Hahn who went two clear early in the back nine.

Bogeys at 12, 13 and 14 derailed his challenge, and it was at the latter that Horschel holed from almost 60 feet for a birdie to draw level with Day.

The Australian responded in perfect fashion, chipping in from off the green at the difficult 15th to retake the lead, but he could not match Horschel's birdie at the par-five 16th.

Both men closed with a pair of pars to set up a play-off, but Day was unable to keep the sequence going as he three-putted from distance after Horschel had missed a 12-foot putt for the title.

"I was a little shaky out there with the putter," Horschel told Sky Sports.

"I was real calm (early), I got on the course and usually I'm a little nervous the first few holes.

"Then I birdied six and I got nervous again. I said you know what, this is just the challenge now.

"Three-putted number 12, three-putted number 13, but making that long bomb on 14 was a big turning point."

Horschel maintained that he didn't have his A-game in the final round, but took inspiration from his caddie, who one week earlier had predicted that they would win the Byron Nelson having missed the cut at Sawgrass.

"I think we (Horschel and Day) both grinded it out," he added. 

"We both battled, but this is what I know about myself: I am as good as the other top players in the world."

Horschel's victory - his first since a sensational FedEx Cup double in 2014 - gains him entry into the US Open, after he missed his first major since 2013 having failed to qualify for the Masters.

Day was bidding to win the Byron Nelson for a second time, having broken through in the event in 2010, but it is Horschel who will be the last champion at TPC Four Seasons, with the event switching venue in 2018.

Day three report


James Hahn is in pole position to win a third PGA Tour title as he leads the AT&T Byron Nelson following a collapse by Jason Kokrak.

Hahn struck six birdies in his six-under-par 64 to sit at the top of the leaderboard on 12 under going into the final round.

Kokrak will be kicking himself after he blew a five-shot overnight lead. The American put himself in line for a first tour win with a career-best round of 62 on Friday but he went round in 10 more shots on day three, thanks in part to a triple-bogey six at the par-three fifth.

He is still in contention on Sunday, though, two shots behind Hahn and one behind second-placed Billy Horschel.

Jason Day struck the round of the day as his 63, consisting of eight birdies and a bogey, saw him surge up the leaderboard and join Kokrak on 10 under.

Defending champion Sergio Garcia will still harbour hopes of retaining his title after a 64 moved him up to eight under, but world number one Dustin Johnson looks out of contention after his one-over-par 71 saw him drift to seven shots off the lead.


Day two report


American Jason Kokrak put himself in a great position to win a first PGA Tour title at the AT&T Byron Nelson as Jordan Spieth had a day to forget.

Kokrak fired a stunning 62, just two shots more than the course record, to move five clear in the lead on 12 under at the halfway point at TPC Four Seasons.

The 31-year-old sank eight birdies in his blemish-free round and he will now aim to complete the job over the weekend and get his first taste of success on the tour.

One man who will not be around for the weekend, though, is Spieth after he missed the cut following a bogey-laden 75.

It was on the par-five 16th where the real damage was done as he had to take three tee shots on his way to a nine after sending his first two attempts out of bounds.

Kokrak, who has not finished in the top 10 of an event this year, is being hunted down by Billy Horschel, who is five shots back on seven under.

World number one Dustin Johnson is one of six men on six under after a three-under-par 67 and he will hope to be in contention come Sunday night.

Reigning champion and recent Masters winner Sergio Garcia is 10 shots off the lead after a superb round of 65, recovering from what was a poor first round.

Day one report


World number one Dustin Johnson sits three shots off the lead following the opening round of the AT&T Byron Nelson in Texas.

The American, who is stepping up his recovery from the back problem which ruled him out of last month's Masters, carded 67 at the Four Seasons Resort and Club in Dallas to finish the day three under par.

The competition is his third since the injury after he finished tied for second at the Wells Fargo Championship and was joint-12th in last week's Players Championship.

Johnson's compatriots James Hahn and  Ricky Barnes hold the joint overnight lead on six under, while Matt Kuchar, Jason Kokrak, Cameron Tringale and Venezuelan Jhonattan Vegas are all two strokes off the pace. Jordan Speith is a shot behind Johnson on two under.

Defending champion Sergio Garcia, who also won the tournament in 2004, has plenty of work to do after he hit three bogeys during a first-round 73 which leaves him three over, though Ian Poulter is on even par.
