Maverick McNealy Wins First PGA Tour Title at RSM Classic

The 29-year-old secured his maiden victory with a decisive birdie on the final hole, earning a spot at the 2025 Masters and other key events.

Maverick McNealy clinched his first PGA Tour win in his 142nd start, finishing at 16-under 266 with a birdie on the 18th hole at Sea Island Golf Club.
The win guarantees McNealy entry into the 2025 Masters, a two-year PGA Tour exemption, and invitations to several high-profile events, including The Sentry and THE PLAYERS Championship.
McNealy's victory came after a dramatic final round, where he overcame a bogey on the 14th hole and a four-way tie for the lead heading into the 18th hole.
Luke Clanton, Nico Echavarria, and Daniel Berger tied for second after each missed critical putts on the final hole, with Berger retaining his PGA Tour card for 2025.
McNealy credited his brother and caddie Scout for strategic guidance, including the decisive 6-iron shot that set up his winning birdie putt.
