September 26-29
Silverado Resort and Spa North, Napa, California
$6,600,000
Round 1, Round 2, Round 3

Cameron Champ held on for a one-stroke victory in Sunday's Safeway Open PGA golf tournament in California, tearfully dedicating the win to his grandfather who is suffering from cancer.

"If I win no more tournaments or 10 more tournaments, this will be the greatest win of my golfing career for sure," Champ said afterwards.

The American had carded an error-free 67 to take a three-shot lead into the final day.

And he needed all his talent to take just his second PGA tour title, making a four-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole to finish ahead of Adam Hadwin.

Champ had five birdies and overcame a bogey on the 17th hole, ending with a three-under 69 at Silverado Resort.

The 24-year-old's grandfather Mack Ray Champ, who fostered the younger man's interest in golf, has stage 4 cancer and is in a hospice.
