    Matt McCarty won Sunday with 72 holes in 23 under par after opening with a 62, and took home a cool $1,350,000. Stephan Jaeger, who took the 36-hole lead with 65-63, held on for second at 20 under, worth $817,500. 

    Daniel Berger shot 72-65-65-70-272, 12 under, and tied for 35th, earning $37,350. Tyson shot 70-67-69-70-276, 8 under, and earned $17,400. Villegas missed the cut of 5 under with 69-74,  1 over.

    Two of the elderly turned up in Utah, 65-year-old Jay Don Blake, in his 500th PGA Tour event, and Mike Weir. Both missed the cut.

    Thee Shriners is played at the par-71 TPC Summerlin, at 7,255 yards. The purse is $7 million.
