South Korean Junghwan Lee produced his “best round” to delight a Genesis\u00a0Championship home crowd at Woo Jeong Hills Country Club in Cheonan.<\/p>\n

Lee fired a superb seven-under final round of 64 to finish at 11-under, three shots clear of England’s Laurie Canter and Spaniard Nacho Elvira.<\/p>\n

“I bogeyed the second hole but afterwards I grabbed (five) consecutive birdies and that really made the game easier and built momentum,” Lee said.<\/p>\n

“This was my best round, especially as the gallery out there were really cheering for me. They gave me the strength I needed.<\/p>\n

Jordan Gumberg holed an unbelievable eagle on the final day of the Genesis Championship to keep his DP World Tour card. <\/p>\n

“I just hope I can live up to their expectations in the future as well. I feel like I’m in a dream and still can’t believe I won, so it’s really hard for me to describe what I’m feeling.”<\/p>\n

Canter holed a monster putt from 100 feet on the 18th for a sensational eagle and a share of second. His 67 also included three birdies.<\/p>\n

England’s Andy Sullivan finished with a 70 to end tied-fourth with Italy’s Andrea Pavan and Yuto Katsuragawa of Japan.<\/p>\n
