It is difficult to win at PGA Tour. Justin Thomas revealed that during his nearly three -year drought, which ended Sunday on RBC Heritage.
Joel Dahmen received an open memory of him during the last round of Championship Puntacana Puntacana at Puntacana Resort & Club in Porto Rico.
Dahmen, who won the event in 2021, entered the last round with the lead, hoping to return to the winner’s circle and return for about a year that has seen him lose five cuts in 10 starts.
The 37-year-old held a lead with a three-holes to play when the wheels began to shake. He made a clumsy noise from the middle of the street on the No. 16 and lost a blow inside two legs for another Bogey at 17.
Another Bogey in the 18 -year -old after a weak approach without Dahmen ending up in 13 under, a shot behind Garrick Higgo, who claimed his second PGA Tour’s career victory.
After the round, a shocked dahmen offered an emotional and cut appreciation of how everything moved to him to Puerto Rico.
“I think I’m in little shock, honestly,” Dahmen said after finishing in a tie for the second. “It’s not how you win a golf tour, I’ll tell you that. I don’t deserve to win it.
“You know, Bogeying the last three is invisible. Mid road of the street with an 8-Hekuri at 16 to hit what I hit, you can’t get up and down there. I don’t know what happened in a short at 17. I want to say, I’m definitely nervous, but unfortunately, I’m prone to that time.
A Joel Dahmen shocked with a strong self -esteem after throwing the last three holes at the Corales Puntacana Championship to lose to Garrick Higgo.

Dahmen was quick to point out that while three bogeys closing led to losses, he had many other options over the weekend to close the deal.
The veteran pointed out that he was “fighting his rhythm” at 16 when he hit an “attractive blow” that led to the first of three Bogeys in a row.
Dahmen, who had only a top-10 conclusion last season, already has three in 2025. His game feels like it is in tendency, but Sunday’s destruction will sit with him for some time.
“It can take a while to overcome,” Dahmen said. “One of those things, you learn more at loss, unfortunately. I don’t know what to do yet. As I said, I still think I’m in a little shock. I felt like I was in a good head space. I was in a good head space, but sometimes your body doesn’t cooperate.”
Dahmen noted how nervous he was while trying to close the golf tour.
He went on the weekend on the 16th under and he knew the tour was his if he could stay in the moment and trust his game.
This is said more easily than done.
Dahmen said he tried to embrace nerves and adrenaline on Sunday. In the past, he has tried to suppress those feelings. He hoped that the change of mentality would allow his body to exploit the nerves and use them in his benefit as long as he could stay under control.
The first 15 holes were on Sunday shocked, but Dahmen still stayed in the 16th with his second superiority and career victory there to get.
Then, everything split.
“Of course, you need to check your breathing a little and try to control your heartbeat,” Dahmen said. “But at the same time, you are attacking and playing insult. I try to stay aggressive with my golf oscillations. I did but just didn’t work. Succks”
