Daniel Summerhays finished eighth in the John Deere Classic Sunday and earned $131,600 for the top ten finish. It brought his total earnings for the year to $969,950.

Jordan Speith won the tournament in a playoff with Tom Gillis. They both shot 20 under par. Speith won with a par on the second playoff hole.

Danny Lee incurred a stroke penalty early in the round when he forgot they weren’t playing under the ‘lift, clean and place’ rule that they used the day previous. He finished that one penalty shot behind Spieth and Gillis.

Scott Pinckney, a former Utahn who played for a year or two with the Utah Junior Golf Association, finished at 12 under par in a tie for 18th place.

Tony Finau and Zac Blair each missed the cut by one shot
