Overview
- Stefano Mazzoli closed with a 6‑under 66 and a 24‑foot birdie on the par‑4 18th to finish 20‑under 268 and claim the 2026 Corales Puntacana Championship by one stroke.
- Mazzoli edged Gordon Sargent and three‑round leader Todd Clements, who finished tied for second at 19‑under after a double bogey on No. 13 and a bogey on No. 16 in the final round.
- As champion, Mazzoli earned $720,000 from the $4 million purse, 300 FedEx Cup points and a two‑year PGA Tour exemption, and he accepted PGA Tour membership after the win.
- Clements carried a multi‑shot lead into the closing holes but played the final six holes in three over, missing an 11‑foot birdie on 18 that would have forced a playoff.
- The event, played opposite The Open on the 7,670‑yard Corales course, highlights how Open‑week scheduling and a long layout create openings for young and alternate entrants to secure Tour status.
