AKRON, Ohio — For most of the day Sunday, it looked like the final round of the 2023 Kaulig Companies Championship would go right down to the wire.
And then Steve Stricker closed the door early.
Stricker drained a lengthy birdie putt on 15 and stuck his approach on “The Monster” 16th to within a few feet to open up a 3-stroke lead with two holes to play, and he went on to claim his third major of the PGA Tour Champions season.
Stricker finished the Kaulig Companies Championship at 11 under, besting Harrison Frazar, who was 8 under.
It was Stricker’s second win at Firestone South in three years. It’s his fifth win of the 2023 season and the 16th on the Champions circuit.
His last six starts on the Champions tour: 1st-1st-T2-1st-2nd-1st.
