Brandt Snedeker wins Canadian Open

Brandt Snedeker has won the Canadian Open in Oakville, Ontario, by three shots to claim his sixth PGA Tour title.

The 32-year-old was pushed by Dustin Johnson until a triple bogey at the 17th ended any hope that he had of winning.

However, Johnson did manage to birdie the final hole to finish in a four-way tie for second alongside William McGirt, Matt Kuchar and Jason Bohn, who had missed a birdie putt at 18.

Snedeker ended up posting a final-round total of 70, which got him to 17-under-par for the week at Glen Abbey.

It is his second victory of the season following success in the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am in February. He has now moved into third place in the FedEx Cup standings.
