He also managed top-5 finishes at the Truist Championship, The Genesis Invitational and The American Express earlier in the year.
After victories in the final two events of the 2021 FedEx Cup play-off series he reached a career-high third in the world. These wins not only earned him the $15million jackpot, but also sealed his first Ryder Cup cap.
As was the case on his maiden Presidents Cup appearance in 2019 he won twice with Xander Schauffele before beating Shane Lowry in the final-day singles.
He's since represented the USA at the Presidents Cup in 2022 and 2024 - winning again with Schauffele - and at Ryder Cups in 2023 and at Bethpage Black in September.
At the 2019 PGA Championship he tied for third, then captured the Memorial Tournament and by beating Collin Morikawa in a play-off successfully defended it in 2021.
He was also tied for third at the 2024 US Open, finishing two stokes behind winner Bryson DeChambeau.
Cantlay was the world’s top-ranked amateur for a record 54 consecutive weeks and was part of the 2011 American Walker Cup side at Royal Aberdeen. Before turning professional twice made the cut in the US Open and once at The Masters.
In 2013 he was kept out of action by a stress fracture in his back and could not even pick up a club for ten months.
