Smotherman Makes It Two Wins in a Row on PGA Tour with Playoff Victory over Seamus Power
Smotherman earned his second straight FedEx Cup Fall victory and first weather-shortened PGA Tour title since 2024, officials said.
- On Monday, Austin Smotherman captured the Butterfield Bermuda Championship in Southampton, Bermuda, defeating Seamus Power of Ireland on the third playoff hole after Sunday's final round was abandoned due to high winds.
- High winds rendered Port Royal unplayable on Sunday, forcing the final round's cancellation and sending Smotherman and Power back Monday tied at 16-under 197 to resolve the championship on the par-3 16th hole.
- Smotherman banked $1,080,000 for his second consecutive FedEx Cup Fall victory, which secures him a spot in the $20 million signature events at Pebble Beach and Riviera next year.
- Power earned $654,000, propelling him from 103rd to inside the top 60 on the FedEx Fall standings and guaranteeing the 39-year-old Irishman a full PGA Tour card for 2027.
- Looking ahead, the Irishman said, "I'll move onwards, a lot of positives from the week," while planning back-to-back tournaments in Mexico, starting with the Mexico Open and World Wide Technology tournament.
