NEWS RELEASE
Bill Haas landed his second Humana Challenge title after a narrow one-shot victory in a tight contest at La Quinta - and moved up to No. 13 in the world pro rankings.
The 32-year-old from Greenville, South Carolina, posted a closing five-under 67 for an aggregate 22-under 266, holding his place at the summit where he began the day in the company of three others.
Beginning the day in a four-way tie at the top of the leaderboard, the former world No 41 posted a closing five-under 67 to finish 22-under in a congested field where five players tied for second.
Among those ending one-shot back were Charley Hoffman and Brendan Steele, who both stayed in contention with eight-under 64's on the final day, while Steve Wheatcroft and South Korea’s Sung Joon Park also ended on 21-under.
Matt Kuchar completed the group of runners-up after a final round 67, with the 36-year-old missing an 11-feet birdie putt at the last to potentially take the tournament into a play-off.
