World number one Luke Donald began the back nine with six birdies to win the US PGA’s season-ending event and capture the American money title in his quest for a historic double. Donald, trying to become the first golfer with US and European money titles in the same year, fired a final-round eight-under par 64 to finish 72 holes on 17-under 271 at the $4.7 million Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals Classic. “This is one of the most satisfying wins of my career,” said Donald.
