English Places 2nd In Farmers Insurance Open

Harris English watches a tee shot during the Farmers Insurance Open.

In the Farmers Insurance Open in San Diego on Sunday, Harris English finished regulation at 9-under 279, along with Jason Day, J.B. Holmes and Scott Stallings.

English made birdie from the bunker on 18 for a 72 to join the playoff. Re-playing 18 in the playoff, English hit through the fairway on his shot back to the fairway and could not get it close. He then was unable to connect on a 60-foot birdie putt to stay alive.

Day ultimately won the tournament on the second playoff hole.

"There’s a lot of good players and it’s hard to run away with the lead out here,” said English, who started the day tied for first with Holmes. “It is such a good golf course and so hard to make birdies.”

Brian Harman and Chris Kirk came in 32nd at 1-under, while Erik Compton and Hudson Swafford missed the cut.
