With the win, he takes home $1.764 million and heads into the Masters with plenty of momentum.

BREMOND, Texas (KWTX) – Early Friday morning, an 18-wheeler slammed on its breaks to avoid a herd of runaway cows, in turn causing a communitywide effort to drive the cattle back through town to their home.
According to a Facebook post from the Bremond Volunteer Fire Department, at around 5:45 a.m., the driver of the 18-wheeler noticed a herd of cattle in the road and slammed on the breaks to avoid hitting them.
Unfortunately, several cattle were hit and killed.
“The community rallied quickly,” the post said, “using their vehicles to help herd the remaining cattle through town.”
Some cows were in backyards, residential gardens, or on railroad tracks. Local cowboys and cowgirls even came to help.
Despite the sadness for the lost cattle, the post described the chaos of the incident as a “heartwarming sight,” with everyone “coming together to safely guide the rest of the herd home.”
