Joaquin Niemann claims the 2022 Genesis Invitational for 2nd PGA tour win

Joaquin Niemann chipped in from 45 feet off the green at the par-5 11th hole for eagle, eventually taking the 2022 Genesis Invitational title. Niemann overcame a sluggish start to shoot even-par 71 at Riviera Country Club and a 2-stroke victory over Collin Morikawa and Cameron Young, making him the first wire-to-wire winner of the Genesis since Hall of Famer Charlie Sifford in 1969. Niemann was 21-under par for his first 46 holes and looked to be a shoe-in to eclipse Lanny Wadkins’ 72-hole scoring record but those final 26 holes proved to be more of a challenge than Niemann ever imagined.
