Sahith Theegala earned his first PGA Tour title on Sunday by claiming a two-shot victory at the Fortinet Championship in Napa, Calif.

The 25-year-old California native made a splash early in his pro career and qualified for the FedEx Cup playoffs earlier this season, but a victory was missing from his resume until Sunday, when he shot a final-round, 4–under 68 at Silverado Resort’s North Course.
