Lucas Glover made it back-to-back PGA Tour victories by beating fellow American Patrick Cantlay in a play-off to win the St Jude Championship.

Glover won with a par on the first play-off hole – the 18th – after Cantlay’s tee shot found the water.
The pair had earlier topped the 72-hole leaderboard on 15 under par at TPC Southwind in Memphis.

England’s Tommy Fleetwood and Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy tied for third one shot further back on 14 under.

“If you told me this three months ago, I’d tell you you’re crazy,” said Glover, who won the Wyndham Championship last week.

“But at the same time, if you asked me legitimately did I think I was capable, I’d say yes, even then. It’s just one of those sad ways athletes are wired.

“We always believe in ourselves no matter how bad it is.”
