**Capture it: Xander Schauffele Wins PGA for First Major**

Xander Schauffele won his first PGA Championship on Sunday, overcoming 2018 champion Brooks Koepka by one stroke to capture his first major title.

“It’s an incredible feeling,” Schauffele said. “I’ve always dreamed of winning a major, and to finally achieve that is truly special.”

Schauffele’s victory was hard-fought, as he and Koepka were tied going into the final round. However, Schauffele separated himself with an eagle on the par-5 10th hole, and then with three birdies over the next four holes.

Schauffele was able to fend off a late charge from Koepka, who had two birdies on the back nine, but it wasn’t enough to catch Schauffele’s exceptional play.

Barron claims 1st PGA Tour Champions major title

Johnathan Barron secured his first PGA Tour Champions major title with a one-stroke victory at the Regions Tradition. The 54-year-old American held off a spirited challenge from Bernhard Langer to claim the prestigious senior tournament.

Barron shot a final round 67 to finish the event on 12-under-par, with Langer carding a 69 to finish in solo second. It was a hard-fought battle between the two legends, with Barron making a crucial birdie putt on the 16th hole that proved to be the difference.

The victory is a major boost for Barron, who has been a consistent performer on the PGA Tour Champions but had yet to win a major. He is now a contender for the Charles Schwab Cup, which is awarded to the player who earns the most points over the course of the season.
