PGA Tour rookie Steven Fisk finished birdie-birdie-birdie to notch his first career tour victory at the Sanderson Farms Championship, as Séamus Power could only muster a one-over 73 on the final day of action in Mississippi to finish 16 shots adrift of the winner.
Fisk posted an eight-under-par 64 in his final round, finishing on a 24-under-par at the Country Club of Jackson to overtake South Africa's Garrick Higgo by two strokes.
Ranked No 183 in the world, Fisk got hotter as the week went on (70-65-65-64).
Fisk and Higgo were tied for the lead at the par-four 16th hole when Fisk drained a 41-foot birdie. Higgo matched him from 11 feet to form another tie at 22-under.
At the par-four 17th, they threw darts at the flagstick with their approach shots, and each landed about three feet away. But Higgo couldn't convert his birdie putt, and Fisk calmly sank his for the outright lead.
Higgo, a two-time PGA Tour winner, needed to bury a 30-foot birdie attempt at No 18 to put pressure on Fisk but missed three feet wide. Fisk had two putts to win but holed his four-foot birdie look to finish in style.
His maiden tour win guarantees Fisk a full PGA Tour card through 2027. He rocketed up from No 135 to 65 in the FedEx Cup Fall standings and has a real shot to finish the fall inside places 51-60, which would get him into the first two signature events of 2026.
Waterford native Power, who squeezed inside the cut on Friday, still has work to do to secure his PGA Tour card for next year.
Power saw any aspirations of early momentum after a birdie at the third come to a shuddering half with a double-bogey at the next hole, where a duffed second shot off the green proved costly.
A further dropped shot on the front nine saw the 38-year-old slip further back before successive birdies at 12 and 13 moved him back to level par.
Power dropped another shot at the penultimate hole, the 456-yard par-four 17th, where a timid approach onto the green meant he had a 22-foot putt to save birdie, which he failed to do.
