"It's been a full roller coaster"- Luke List talks about his victory at the 2023 Sanderson Farms Championship

The 2023 Sanderson Farms Championship witnessed an incredible five-man playoff on Sunday when Luke List had a most unlikely victory at the PGA Tour event.

Speaking about the playoffs, Luke List said (via PGA Tour):

"It's been a full roller coaster. I hung in there. I didn't think it was going to be enough, but here we are. It's been a crazy 20 minutes."

As he made a birdie in the playoffs, his wife and kids started celebrating his incredible win. It was an emotional moment for the golfer and special to be surrounded by his family.

“I think all my emotion kind of came out after that putt, and then it was just shock, really, still. But to have them there means everything. The last one my son was a little smaller and he's starting to get into golf a little bit. But just my wife, she's incredible, and her steadiness and perseverance to keep me level and positive is a job in itself," Luke said.
“It’s just tough sometimes backing myself, and she's always got my back. It was really special having her and my kids here," he added.

Ryder Cup hero Ludvig Aberg settled for second position at the 2023 Sanderson Farms Championship in a tie with Ben Griffin, Scott Stallings and Henrik Norlander.
