Golfers in the Travellers Championship should only need 72 holes to determine the winner of the 2021 Championship.

Instead, they needed 80 because Harris English and Kramer Hickok played eight sudden-death playoff holes to determine the winner.

The England team finally made a birdie putt on the 8th extra hole and won. This victory was his second victory of the year, making him the first PGA Tour player to win two championships in 2021.

The England-Hickok battle is historic because it is the second longest playoff game in PGA Tour history. This marked the first time since 2012 that an eight-hole play-off occurred during the tournament.
