South African Tim Clark won The Players Championship in at TPC Sawgrass to win his first PGA Tour tournament in a 12-year period. Five birdies in a six hole stretch in the middle of his round gave Clark the lead and he completed his round in 67, the best of the day by two, for a single stroke victory over Robert Allenby. The win takes Clark to World Number 20, a rise of 20 places.

Andersson Hed took a commanding six stroke advantage into the final round in Turin after a brilliant third round nine under par 63 and his final round of 73 was enough for a two stroke victory and a 125 spot jump to World Number 152.
