Frankie Harris shoots 59 in final round before winning Korn Ferry Tour’s Pinnacle Bank Championship in play-off | Golf News

Published

on

Frankie Harris made an 18-foot birdie putt on the final hole as he shot a 12-under 59 before winning the Korn Ferry Tour’s Pinnacle Bank Championship in a play-off.

Harris shot an eight-under 27 on the back nine at The Club at Indian Creek with six birdies, an eagle and two pars added to four birdies and five pars across his front nine in Nebraska.

The 23-year-old, who beat Alistair Docherty in the play-off after both players ended at 22 under following the regulation 72 holes, is the ninth golfer worldwide to shoot a sub-60 final round and win the tournament.

Harris joins players including Bryson DeChambeau, who won LIV Golf Greenbrier in 2023 after ending with a 58, and Jim Furyk, who recorded a 58 in round four of the 2016 Travelers Championship.

‘Shooting a 59 never crossed my mind’

Harris said afterwards: “The thought of a 59 never even crossed my mind. Honestly, like 100 per cent. I did not know I shot a 59 when I made that putt on 18.

“I knew I was playing well, but I was just trying to keep the pedal on the gas and finish strong.

“I was ready to crack my first beer once I finished the round, but then my caddie and I made a smart choice not do that because Alistair came in real hot.

“I knew it was going to come down to a play-off, so figured it was my time.”

The victory moves Harris to No 29 on the Korn Ferry Tour points list, with the top 20 at the end of the campaign earning PGA Tour cards for 2027.

Andoni Iraola: What we have learned from Liverpool’s start under new boss

Published

on

Many of Iraola’s attacking principles resemble those of one of his long-time managerial inspirations, the former Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa.

The Argentine coached Iraola at Athletic Club between 2011 and 2013 and, speaking to Sky Sports in 2023, the Liverpool boss acknowledged this influence.

“I use a lot of exercises from Marcelo that I learned from him, especially with the ball,” Iraola said.

“Offensively, his teams are very dynamic, willing to make all the runs to the space, he is ready to accept this kind of disorder offensively.”

Like Bielsa’s sides, Iraola already has the Reds playing in a busy manner. When attacking, it is rare to see Liverpool‘s players filling specific areas in a rigid style.

Another tactic Bielsa leans on is the use of wide pairings or trios to break teams down. Iraola experienced this at first hand when playing as a right-back for him.

The full-back and winger would regularly combine on the outside, but the relationship was never as simple as one holding the width and the other supporting underneath statically.

Bielsa, like Iraola now, encouraged players to change their positions in relation to each other.

The winger could come inside, opening the outside lane for the full-back, while a midfielder would move towards the pair to create a third passing option.

On other occasions, the full-back could move inside himself, allowing the winger to remain high and wide.

Liverpool are already showing similar patterns under Iraola, especially on the left, where full-backs have pushed into the final third alongside Rio Ngumoha or Cody Gakpo on the left wing.

Florian Wirtz, playing primarily as Liverpool‘s number 10 under Iraola, has drifted to that flank to provide a third option capable of playing centrally, deep or out wide.

The rotations of these wide triangles make it hard for opponents to know who they should be picking up.

By simplifying the attacking game into two-v-two or three-v-three situations, Liverpool are hoping to have a repeatable and dynamic solution, resulting in crosses from dangerous positions close to goal.
