Overview
- Michael Thorbjornsen, who won Sunday, closed with a bogey-free 7-under 63 that included a long birdie putt on the 18th to finish 18-under and win by two shots.
- The victory moved Thorbjornsen to No. 69 in the FedEx Cup standings, guaranteeing a top-70 playoff berth, and he withdrew from the following week’s Wyndham Championship.
- Thorbjornsen collected $1.8 million from a $10 million purse in what was his 65th PGA Tour start and his win made him the eighth first-time winner on the Tour this season.
- Xander Schauffele finished solo second, Davis Riley was third and Rasmus Hojgaard fourth, and the Detroit Golf Club played as a tougher par-70 after recent course renovations.
- This week was the Rocket Classic’s final Rocket-sponsored staging as Rocket Mortgage declined to continue under the Tour’s new model and the PGA Tour has slated a Napa/Silverado event to fill the 2027 date, a change that reflects shifting sponsor costs and schedule realignment ahead of 2028.
