Conners' finishes PGA Tour Championship in top 30

Listowel's Corey Conners finished the PGA Tour Championship in a tie for 26th with a final round 4-over-par-74.

Conners ran into some trouble, ending up with five bogeys and one birdie on the final day and ended up 3-over through the tournament.

It was his worst round of the tournament after carding an opening round of 68 with a couple of 71's sandwiched in between.

But Conners' top-30 finish does earn him some money. He and Justin Rose earned $430,000 in FedExCup bonus payouts for their 26th place finish.

Rory McIlroy shot a final round 4-under-66 and won it with a score of 18-under and earned a PGA record payout of $15-million.
