Kurt Kitayama won for the 1st time on the PGA Tour on Sunday at the 2023 Bay Hill Invitational in Orlando. Overcome 2 tee shots he out of bounds over the weekend. Triple Bogey on the 9th Hole in the Final Rd of this event. Never got rattled at all. Kept his composure very well & let the game come to you. Kurt did that one. 3-Putt Par on the Par 5 16th Hole. Birdie Putt on the Par 3 17th Hole. Almost made a long Birdie on the Par 4 18th Hole. Made a Par instead. Get the best of Rory McIlroy & Harris English at the end of the round. Win by one shot. Paul Azinger was right about that one -9 was going to be the winning score. It was the winning score of the 2023 Bay Hill Invitational in Orlando.
