Theegala, 23, whose Indian parents shifted base to the US, had a final round of 1-under 71, even as Sam Burns, 25, earned his second Tour victory in his 87th start following a one-shot win over Nick Watney and Cameron Young.
Burns closed with a 67 to end his week on 22-under. After holding at least a share of the lead each of the first three rounds this week, rookie Theegala finished at 19-under and tied eighth. India’s Anirban Lahiri, who missed the cut this week, will return next week at the Shriners Hospital Open, as will Theegala.
