The win, including the $10 million FedExCup bonus, earned Haas a total of $11 440 000.
Haas’s victory will mainly be remembered for his incredible recovery shot on the second hole of a sudden-death playoff against compatriot Hunter Mahan.
After the American’s approach shot ran into the water to the left of East Lake Golf Club’s 17th green, he splashed out the ball to three feet, knocked in the putt to force a third playoff hole, then won the tournament with a par on the next hole.
