He finished with a six on the final hole and played his way out of the playoff.<\/p>\n<p>He talked about his struggles in his post-round interview with CBS\u2019 Amanda Balionis Renner.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s tough to finish like that. Really good week. I didn\u2019t play really well today. Just needed to do a couple more birdies, just hit it a little bit better to win.
