It seems like a movie script, like it's not real,” Novak said. “But it's just perfect how it all came together.” The Zurich Classic is a 72-hole stroke play format featuring four-ball (best ball) during the first and third rounds and foursomes (alternate shot) during the second and fourth rounds.

Andrew Novak and Ben Griffin shot a 1-under 71 in alternate-shot play Sunday to become first-time PGA Tour winners — by one stroke — at the Zurich Classic.

Andrew Novak couldn’t get it in San Diego. He couldn’t get it in San Antonio. He couldn’t even get it last week in a playoff with Justin Thomas in Hilton Head. No, the hottest golfer you didn’t know kept coming up so close and so short.
