AT&T Byron Nelson 2016: Final Leaderboard Scores, Prize-Money Payouts

Brooks Koepka built a three-stroke lead entering the back nine of Sunday's final round at the AT&T Byron Nelson, playing with exemplary composure alongside home-state favorite Jordan Spieth in the last pairing.

But Koepka sputtered down the stretch, Spieth had a disastrous round, and Sergio Garcia sneaked into a playoff, defeating Koepka with a par on the first sudden-death hole for the ninth PGA Tour win of his career.

Here's a look at the top performers of the week, including the lucrative paydays they secured from the tournament's $7.3 million purse:

Pos.	Player	Scores	To Par	Prize Money
1	Sergio Garcia (Won in Playoff)	63-66-68-68	-15	$1,314,000
2	Brooks Koepka	65-64-65-71	-15	$788,400
3	Matt Kuchar	65-67-65-69	-14	$496,400
T4	Colt Knost	70-63-69-65	-13	$264,625
T4	Spencer Levin	68-66-67-66	-13	$264,625
T4	Charles Howell III	65-70-66-66	-13	$264,625
T4	Robert Garrigus	65-70-66-66	-13	$264,625
T4	Tim Wilkinson	67-69-63-68	-13	$264,625
T4	Bud Cauley	64-65-68-70	-13	$264,625

Koepka kicked off the playoff at the 18th tee with a wayward drive to the left that found the water hazard, while Garcia carried his shot 304 yards and found the center of the fairway. Koepka's drive ultimately led to a double bogey and doomed the American's hopes of a second PGA Tour win.

Adam Sarson of theScore praised Garcia's bold course management and confidence amid the extra action:

The gallery at the TPC Four Seasons Resort in Irving, Texas, was exuberantly cheering Spieth on, but the two-time major champion had a rough outing, carding only two birdies against six bogeys en route to a four-over 74.

CBS Sports' Kyle Porter had a fitting reaction on a day when Spieth settled for a tie for 18th, hit only nine of 18 greens in regulation and found the fairway on only five of 14 drives:

Peter Kostis of CBS broke down the lackluster swing mechanics that plagued Spieth, courtesy of the PGA Tour's official Twitter account:

Koepka was steady for much of Sunday with birdies at Nos. 7 and 9, a bogey at No. 3 and nothing else but pars through 13 holes. However, consecutive bogeys at Nos. 14 and 15, along with a disappointing par at the par-five 16th, allowed Garcia to make up ground.

There was no shortage of intrigue as Garcia's round played out. One of his most notable highlights was a brilliant par save at the par-four eighth, when it appeared as though he had gotten into trouble after three consecutive birdies, as the PGA Tour showed:

Dropped shots at Nos. 10 and 14 were offset when Garcia birdied the 13th and 16th, though he did leave a birdie effort at the par-three 17th inches short of the heart of the hole.

Both Koepka and Garcia had realistic birdie chances on the 72nd hole with right-to-left putts. Garcia was considerably closer but hit his ball too firmly on the high side, whereas Koepka left his low but within tap-in range to match the Spaniard at 15 under par overall.

The PGA Tour shared the replays:

Everything wound up working out for Garcia in the end. Sunday marked the first time Garcia has won on the PGA Tour since the 2012 Wyndham Championship.

Dan Wolken of USA Today reflected upon Garcia's accomplishments in the wake of his latest triumph:

As a past winner of The Players Championship, a Ryder Cup stalwart and an accomplished global player, Garcia has to be relieved to finally get out of his win drought. All that continues to be absent from his resume is a major title, which he'll have a chance to achieve at the U.S. Open in June.

But there's plenty of golf to play between now and then—before Spieth attempts to guard his championship trophy.

Although Koepka's lackluster finish damaged his Ryder Cup candidacy, the major narrative to emerge from the Byron Nelson—beyond Garcia snapping his dry spell—will likely focus on Spieth and golf's elite as the second major of the year approaches.

Spieth missed the Players cut last week and saw world No. 1 Jason Day proceed to grab the coveted crystal trophy. The game's other surefire superstar, Rory McIlroy, won the Irish Open on Sunday.

Such circumstances, whether Spieth acknowledges them or not, will put more pressure on him to quickly recover from his inconsistent form over the past few months—a stretch that has included a shocking collapse during his attempted title defense at the Masters.

Post-Round Reaction

Spieth elaborated on what went wrong in the wake of his final round, which at least ended with a short-range birdie at the last, per PGATour.com's Mike McAllister:

Much of Garcia's interview immediately afterward focused on how he tied the legendary Seve Ballesteros with nine PGA Tour wins:

"It's awesome. It means the world to me. You could say I played a little like Seve today," said Garcia, per ESPN.com's Jason Sobel.

Koepka felt he didn't even have his "C" game, per McAllister, and also explained how his lack of control over even the shorter clubs in his bag cost him.

"I had no idea where the wedges were going...never felt like I really had a chance to go at a flag," Koepka said.
