Nicolas Echavarria - Golf News, Rumors, & Updates

Victorious at the Cognizant Classic Echavarria posted a 17-under cumulative score at the Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches to win by two strokes over Taylor Moore, Shane Lowry and Austin Smotherman.

Impact Echavarria found himself near the top of the leaderboard after firing a bogey-free, eight-under 63 in the first round. He lost momentum after a one-over 72 score in the second before placing himself in position for a late surge after a five-under 66 on Saturday. Echavarria was steady on Championship Sunday with a three-under front nine, and his daring tee shot on the par-3 17th paid off with a birdie, which gave him even more of a cushion after Lowry found the water on the 16th and 17th holes to card double bogeys on each. It was a much-needed victory for Echavarria, who missed the cut in four of five PGA Tour events heading into the Cognizant. His win not only moved him up to sixth in the FedExCup Standings, but it also earned him a spot in The Masters in April. The 31-year-old Colombian is in the field for next week's Arnold Palmer Invitational in what will be his first appearance at the signature event.

Falls in playoff to Nick Taylor Echavarria was defeated on the second playoff hole by Nick Taylor and had to settle for solo second at the Sony Open in Hawaii.

Taylor played with Echavarria on Sunday and was able to match him at 16-under-par with a chip-in eagle on the 72nd hole. It set up another playoff at the Sony Open. Both players would make birdie on the first extra hole. Echavarria looked to be in an advantageous situation on the second extra hole with Taylor in a fairway bunker. The Colombian put his second shot to the par-5 18th just off the back of the green, while Taylor was in a tricky spot inside of 50 yards. Taylor stepped up an hit a very clutch shot, while Echavarria left his eagle putt well short. With the wind whipping, Echavarria just pushed his birdie putt to the right and Taylor just had to clean up for the win. It will certainly sting a bit for Echavarria who also just missed victories at the WWT Championship and RSM Classic last fall following a win at the ZOZO Championship. The 30-year-old clearly has a lot of game and will look to keep putting his name in the hat in 2025.

Impact Echavarria saw his first Sunday afternoon since last April, when he finished 66th a the Mexico Open. Despite his streak of missed cuts, his round-by-round results aren't terrible.

Currently, Echavarria's Achilles heel is accuracy off the tee, where he hits the fairway only 59 percent of the time. His 65.32 GIR percentage is also a weak link.
