‘Spider-Man’ Camilo Villegas (Colombia) delivered a victory after 9 years.

On the 12th (local time), he shot 6 under par in the 4th round of the PGA Tour Butterfield Bermuda Championship (total prize money $6.5 million) held at Port Royal Golf Course (par 71, 6,828 yards) in Southampton, Bermuda, securing a 2-stroke win (24 under par 260). This marked his 5th career win, 9 years and 3 months after his victory at the Wyndham Championship in August 2014, with a winner’s prize of $1.17 million (approximately 1.55 billion KRW).

Starting 1 stroke behind in 2nd place, Villegas swept up 6 birdies without a single bogey. He reduced 4 strokes in the front nine with three consecutive birdies from holes 3 to 5 and a birdie on the 7th hole (par 5), and secured the win with ‘stepping stone birdies’ on holes 15 and 17 in the back nine. His ‘needle-like iron shots’ with a green hit rate of 94.44% and an average of 1.71 putts per hole powered his performance. Villegas is famous for reading greens by crawling like Spider-Man.

Alex Noren (Sweden), who led for three consecutive days, lowered his score by 3 strokes but settled for runner-up (22 under par 262). The 41-year-old Noren has 10 career wins on the DP World Tour (formerly European Tour) but has yet to win on the PGA Tour. Martin Schmidt (Germany) finished 3rd (21 under par 263), Adam Scott (Australia) and Ryan Moore tied for 5th (19 under par 265), and Adam Long (USA) tied for 13th (16 under par 268). No Seung-yeol lost 2 strokes and finished tied for 72nd (5 under par 279).
