Vincent Norrman won the 2023 Barbasol Championship after posting a 22-under-par 266. The 25-year-old defeated Nathan Kimsey in a one-hole playoff to earn the first victory of his career on the PGA Tour. Norrman went up and down to secure a par during the only playoff hole. He got the win from him after Kimsey missed a short putt and was forced to take advantage for a bogey.
Adrien Saddier and Trevor Cone finished the T3 tournament after posting 21-under 267. Despite scoring four birdies and zero bogeys during his final round, Lucas Glover lost the lead and finished in fifth place at 20-under-par 268.
The PGA Tour shared Vincent’s win on Twitter.
Tournament Summary
Despite starting outside the top 100 in the world golf rankings, Lucas Glover put together a terrific first round. Eight birdies and an eagle saw him sit in solo first at 9-under. Ryan Moore orchestrated a bogey-free round and drained eight birdies. Moore finished the first day tied for second at 8-under.
Although he got off to a slow start on Thursday, David Ravetto put together an impressive second round. Ravetto loaded four birdies and two eagles. To make his Friday sweeter, he was also able to avoid a bogey. Trevor Cone’s five birdies and two eagles helped him make a par of seven under on Friday.
To kick off the weekend’s play, Trevor Cone kept his foot on the gas. Cone locked in a bogey-free third round, complemented by nine birdies. This 9-under performance tied for the best single-round score for this year’s tournament.
Although he didn’t get the result he wanted, Nathan Kimsey played a phenomenal final round. Kimsey was able to avoid just one bogey and made six birdies and an eagle. His fourth-round score of 8 under par was good enough to earn him a spot in a playoff with Vincent Norrman.
Norrman’s win earned him a share of the $684,000 purse, along with 300 FedExCup points.
