On the 21st (local time), at the Tahoe Mountain Club in Truckee, California, USA (par 71, 7,480 yards), during the 4th round of the Barracuda Championship (total prize money $4 million) held in a modified Stableford format on the PGA Tour, he added 10 points to rise to a tie for 17th place (37 points). He recorded 7 birdies (14 points) and 4 bogeys (-4 points). A birdie earns 2 points, a bogey deducts 1 point, and an eagle earns 5 points.

Nick Dunlap (USA) swept up 1 eagle (5 points) and 7 birdies (14 points), securing a 2-point victory (49 points). This is his second win of the season, six months after his first career victory at the American Express in January, with a winner's prize of $720,000 (about 1 billion KRW). Dunlap, a sophomore at the University of Alabama, won the American Express as an amateur. He became the first amateur champion in 33 years since Phil Mickelson (USA) won the Northern Telecom Open in 1991. At that time, as an amateur, he did not receive the winner's prize of $1,512,000 (about 2.1 billion KRW). At age 12, he won a local tournament by 13 strokes with a score of 59. After dominating the amateur stage, he turned professional following his PGA Tour victory.

Vince Whaley finished second (47 points), and Patrick Fishburn (both USA) took third place (46 points). Mac Meissner (USA), who led for two consecutive days, made 4 birdies (8 points) and 3 bogeys (-3 points), dropping to 4th place (44 points). For Korea, Noh Seung-yeol added 7 points with 4 birdies (8 points) and 1 bogey (-1 point), finishing tied for 24th place (35 points) in the tournament.
