Jones won the Honda Classic by five shots Sunday, a final round of 2-under 68 good enough to finish the week at 12-under 268 at PGA National. J.B.

He ended up with a costly final-round 79 for Holmes; second place, where he started the day, paid Hagy $763,000 while the tied-for-46th finish paid Holmes $19,070.

(AP Photo/Marco Garcia)HONOLULU – Brendan Steele knows he can play well at the Sony Open whether it's windy or calm, in sunshine or rain. One year after Steele lost a late lead at Waialae and lost in a playoff, he delivered the lowest score of his career Saturday in ideal conditions with a 9-under 61 that gave him a two-shot lead going into the final round. “You hope that you come back and you play well and erase whatever negative memories there are,” Steele said. It was wide open on Saturday, and it's not likely to be any different in the final round.

The PGA Tour is at Muirfield Village for the second straight week, and it only looks like the same course. Bryson DeChambeau pounded his tee shots one of them went 423 yards and still couldn't get his wedges terribly close. Steele overcame an early bogey with solid golf the rest of the way for a one-shot lead over Charles Howell III. That goes for the fairways, the greens, Steele said. And then the wind stopped when he hit the shot, and his ball sailed some 15 yards over the green.
