Russell Knox Wins Irish Open In Playoff
6 years agoRussell Knox captured the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open in dramatic fashion Sunday. Knox drained a 50-foot putt on the 72nd hole to card a final-round 66 and force a playoff with Ryan Fox. On the opening playoff hole, Knox nailed a massive putt that was almost identical to the one he made just minutes earlier. It was good for a birdie and the win. Knox has exploded in his last two appearances, finishing second in the HNA Open de France last week and sealing the deal at the Irish Open on Sunday. He will be playing in the upcoming Open Championship at Carnoustie. His current form deserves serious DFS consideration on the links layout.
