He closed with an even-par 72.<\/p>\n<p>There were still a few nervous moments.<\/p>\n<p>Horschel\u2019s streak of 49 consecutive holes without a bogey ended on the sixth hole. He didn\u2019t make his first birdie until the 10th hole. He had to scramble for bogey on the par-3 12th that dropped his lead to two over Aaron Wise.<\/p>\n<p>Before the long eagle, Horschel saved himself with par putts of 12 feet on the 13th hole and 8 feet on 14.<\/p>\n<p>And then it was over. From the front of the green on the par-5 15th, Horschel\u2019s putt from just inside 55 feet had the perfect line and perfect speed, bending left and dropping in the left side of the cup as he stretched out both arms in a quiet, disbelieving celebration.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"\/>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Memorial_Golf.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Billy Horschel celebrates on the 18th green after winning the Memorial golf tournament Sunday, June 5, 2022, in Dublin, Ohio.\" class=\"wp-image-22542967\"\/><figcaption>Billy Horschel celebrates on the 18th green after winning the Memorial Tournament.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cJust like you, big man,\u201d Horschel said to tournament host Jack Nicklaus when it was over.<\/p>\n<p>His lead was up to four shots, and it was a comfortable finish. Horschel finished at 13-under 275 and won $2.16 million, the largest paycheck of his career. As an elevated event, the win comes with a three-year exemption.<\/p>\n<p>Horschel said he has learned from Tiger Woods and Nicklaus that he didn\u2019t need to do anything special with a five-shot lead unless the moment called for it. It was calling on the 15th hole after Wise stuffed a wedge into 2 feet for birdie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf I had to do something special, I was ready for it,\u201d he said. \u201cMaking that was huge.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Memorial_Golf.1.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Billy Horschel drops his club on a drive during the final round of the Memorial golf tournament Sunday, June 5, 2022, in Dublin, Ohio.\" class=\"wp-image-22543019\"\/><figcaption>Billy Horschel drops his club on a drive during the final round of the Memorial Tournament.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Wise did what he could in a final round so difficult that no one shot better than 69. He and Joaquin Niemann were the only players to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ly any serious pressure on Horschel. He opened the back nine with a pair of birdies sand saved par from the back bunker on the 12th. But he dropped a shot on the 13th just as Horschel was looking shaky.<\/p>\n<p>Wise made a meaningless bogey on the final hole for a 71 to finish alone in second.<\/p>\n<p>Cameron Smith, who had the 36-hole lead, also started five shots behind. He had a pair of double bogeys for a 42 on the front nine and was never a factor.<\/p>\n<p>Niemann, who won another elevated event at Riviera in the Genesis Invitational, made a strong move and was creeping within range until his wedge on the 14th found a bunker, leading to double bogey. He answered with two birdies, finished with a double bogey and shot 71. He tied for third with defending champion Patrick Cantlay (71).<\/p>\n<p>Before the handshake with Nicklaus, Horschel was mobbed by his three children. He now has seven PGA Tour victories. His wife has watched him win. His parents have seen him win. This was the first time his children were there, and they were bouncing on the firm greens.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/APTOPIX_Memorial_Golf.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Billy Horschel celebrates with his family on the 18th green after winning the Memorial golf tournament Sunday, June 5, 2022, in Dublin, Ohio.\" class=\"wp-image-22543029\"\/><figcaption>Billy Horschel celebrates with his family on the 18th green after winning the Memorial Tournament.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>That might have been as great as any pressure as Horschel felt.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving a five-shot lead, knowing it was mine to win, I really wanted to get the monkey off my back,\u201d he said of winning with his kids in attendance.<\/p>\n<p>Horschel moves to just outside the top 10 in the world, the highest he has ever been, thanks to a year that finally has brought some consistency in a hit-and-miss <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>. He has three victories in the last 15 months, all of them against strong fields \u2014 the Dell Match Play and the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth last year, and now this.<\/p>\n<p>It might even be enough to finally be considered for a U.S. team with the Presidents Cup later this year.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
