Lawrence was defeated in a playoff by Billy Horschel at the BMW PGA Championship following a seven-under 65 in the final round.
Lawrence surged out in front following his fourth birdie in six holes at the par-4 16th. He would be tracked down by both Horschel and Rory McIlroy, however, after Lawrence failed to birdie either of the two par-5 closing holes. The South African was also swiftly eliminated in the playoff after finding the hazard on the first extra hole. Lawrence will certainly rue how he played three straight par-5s, but shooting 65-65 on the weekend is no small feat in a tournament of this magnitude. Lawrence moves up to second in the Race to Dubai standings and is closing in on earning a PGA Tour card in 2025. Lawrence is not in the field for the acciona Open de Espana next week.
