Russell Henley bull-rushed his way to victory at Sunday’s World Wide Technology Championship in Mayakoba. Henley broke the tournament scoring and margin of victory records (23-under 261) by matching four strokes. RELATED: Full FedExCup standings Viktor Hovland was a two-time reigning champion at El Camaleon Golf Course, Playa del Carmen. There were other options, but Henley’s victory was the most successful. In part, both of the records Henley equaled were established (scoring or tied (margin), by Hovland last year. Henley extended his lead over the rest of the field by six strokes after opening with consecutive 63s at the midpoint. A third-round 65 saw him extend his reach to six. Henley signed for a closing 70 to earn 500 FedExCup points as well as $1.476 million when he signed. Hovland did not attempt the threepeat, finishing in a fourth-place share of 10th with four sub 70s. But Henley, 33, was a great player in recording his fourth career PGA TOUR title. Two months remain until the 10-year anniversary of his debut at the Sony Open, Hawaii. He made his professional debut on TOUR in 2013 at that time, and it was then that he broke through as a rookie. He signed for three 63s that week at Waialae to reach 24-under 256. It is still the third-lowest aggregate of the tournament’s history. Brian Harman finished solo second at Mayakoba with a Sunday-66 win. He earned 300 FedExCup Points and $893,000. Henley and Harman were both 40-to-1 favourites to win at BetMGMGM.
