Michael Kim started the day tied in third place one shot behind the lead at the FedEx Open de France and carded a bogey-free 6-under 65 to reach 16-under and win his maiden DP World Tour title by one shot.

“It feels amazing. I haven’t won a tournament since 2018 at the John Deere Classic and I really wanted to put on a good showing here this week,” said the American. “And I’m just so happy and grateful that I was able to come out with the victory.

“I’ve had a really good year on the PGA Tour this year. This feels like the perfect cherry on top and I hope to continue this throughout my career.”
