JUPITER, Fla. - Eric Cole from Orlando, FL did not make a bogey in 36 holes en route to a 9-under par total of 133 (65-68) and a one shot win in the Tour Championship presented by Abacoa GC and BlueTide Insurance. Talented amateur and senior at University of Florida Matthew Kress was 4-under par through 12 holes in the final round and tied with Cole. The difference would come on the par-5 17th where Kress missed a 6 footer for birdie and Cole made a big breaking 15 footer for birdie. Both men exchanged pars at the last and Cole won by a shot. He earned $12,000 from the $55,235 purse plus $410 in skins and $464 from the bonus pool for a total of $12,874. This is now the 4th Tour Championship Eric has won and his 60th win on the MLGT. His previous Tour Championship wins were in 2009, 2021 and 2023. Cole begins his 4th full season on the PGA Tour next month at the Sony Open in Hawaii.

In a second day shootout Wednesday among players who shot 72 or higher Tuesday, Arie Jackman won $232 with a final round score of 66.

JUPITER, Fla. - Eric Cole from Orlando, FL did not make a bogey en route to a 6-under par 65 and the first round lead. He made birdies at 6,10,11,12,16 and 18. Eric has won this event three times in 2009, 2021 and 2023 and will look to add his name to the trophy for a fourth time tomorrow.
Grant Haefner opened with 66 and is in solo second just one back. Five players are tied for 3rd after opening rounds of 67.
In the skins game no holes were won outright so per MLGT policy the holes with the lowest number of ties split the skins pot. Holes 12 and 18 only had 2 ties so those 4 players split the skins pot . Click on any of the $ symbols under the skins/total tab to view the skins results.
