Jackson, Miss: Kevin Yu made golf history by becoming only the third player from Chinese Taipei to win a PGA TOUR tournament following a thrilling playoff victory over Beau Hossler in the Sanderson Farms Championship on Sunday.

The 26-year-old Yu birdied the 18th hole twice at The Country Club of Jackson, Mississippi, first from 15 feet in regulation to force extra-time and then from six feet to claim a “dream” victory in front of his parents who were amongst the fans gathered for the second of eight PGA TOUR FedExCup Fall tournaments.

“It’s literally a dream come true,” said Yu, who joins T.C. Chen (1987 LA Open, now the Genesis Invitational) and C.T. Pan (2019 RBC Heritage) as winners from Chinese Taipei.
