– Sergio Garcia made a closing birdie to secure a one-shot victory at the Sanderson Farms Championship in Jackson, Mississippi, on Sunday that he dedicated to two uncles he lost to COVID-19. Garcia, who went out in the final pairing and with a three-way share of the lead, tapped in from two feet at the last hole for a five-under-par 67 that brought him to 19 under on the week and secured his first PGA Tour triumph since the 2017 Masters, reports Reuters. “(My dad is) one of nine siblings, and unfortunately we lost two of his brothers because of COVID, one at the beginning, Uncle Paco, and one just last Saturday actually, not yesterday but the Saturday before, Uncle Angel,” said Garcia, who now has victories in three different decades on the PGA Tour. “You know, it’s sad. It’s sad. And I know that a lot of families have lost a lot more people, but you never want to lose anyone like that, and I wanted to win this for them.” Runner-up Peter Malnati, who began the day five shots behind Garcia, shot a career-low 63 and waited around the Country Club of Jackson for nearly two hours to see if it would be enough.
