Brandt Snedeker Wins Myrtle Beach Classic for First PGA Tour Title in Nearly 8 Years
The 45-year-old veteran earned a two-year PGA Tour exemption and spots in the PGA Championship and 2027 Players after a comeback win.
- On Sunday, Brandt Snedeker captured the ONEflight Myrtle Beach Classic in South Carolina, securing his 10th PGA Tour victory and first in nearly eight years while earning a spot in the upcoming PGA Championship.
- Snedeker's comeback follows 2022 experimental sternum surgery and his mother's passing; entering the season on conditional status, he had missed numerous cuts since the COVID pandemic before reclaiming his form.

- The victory grants Snedeker a two-year PGA Tour exemption, providing crucial stability for the 45-year-old and guaranteeing entry into high-profile tournaments previously out of reach.
- Serving as captain of the United States team at the Presidents Cup this autumn, Snedeker will evaluate American players while continuing his competitive career at age 45.
