Today’s PGA Tour Winner, 42- year old Jim Herman credits President Donald Trump (see video below) for ‘little bit of good luck’ at this week’s Wyndham Championship.
This is Herman’s third PGA Tour win with a final-round 63 to win the championship at 21-under par.
One incredible putt from Herman in the video below and coincidentally he says it was President Trump who gave hive advice on his putting.

Jim Herman made 8 cuts this season and had to finish top 2 to get into the FedEx Cup playoffs. He was 500/1 to start the week and shot 124 on the weekend.
He also jumped from 192 to 52 in the FedExCup Playoffs after his victory today. This is the largest jump ever in the regular-season finale.
This was a massive upset as he edged out Billy Horschel with the final round 63
Herman is the 318th ranked golfer in the world.
He credits President Trump for a golf tip about putting:
"Getting that phone call from (President Trump) this morning, I had another tear in my eye. Just amazing things."
