Akshay Bhatia overcame a five-shot deficit on the back nine to force a playoff and defeat Daniel Berger on the first extra hole at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard. The 24-year-old secured his third PGA Tour title—all in playoffs—and the event's first playoff since 1999, closing with a 3-under 69 to match Berger's 15-under 273 at Bay Hill Club & Lodge.
Chris Gotterup secured his fourth PGA Tour victory by defeating Hideki Matsuyama in a sudden-death playoff at the 2026 WM Phoenix Open. The 26-year-old American shot a final-round 64 to force the playoff after birdieing five of his last six holes. Matsuyama's collapse on the 18th was marked by two distractions, handing Gotterup the $1.728 million winner's check.
