There was no title for Joaquín Niemann at AT&T Byron Nelson. The native of Talagante had a last day to forget at the TPC Carig Ranch and could not renew the excellent feelings left on Saturday .
And it is that before the start of the tour there were many expectations for the winner of two PGA tournaments. This, because he was very close to the direction of one of his closest in the circuit, the Colombian Sebastián Muñoz.
However, the talagantino started badly. A bogey at the sixth flag, he presaged an unprolific day. He made up ground on the eighth hole with a birds but immediately, in the next, he made another bogey who did not allow him to take off .
And if in the first round Joaco had not been able to display his best golf, in the second part the inaccuracy was around the arm of Talagantino and he ended up succumbing. A bogey at flag 13, he knocks out all hope of reaching the one who, at that moment, imposes himself as the champion, the Korean Lee Kyoung-hoon, who has a card of -25. And it was the South Korean who ultimately led the tournament, finishing in first place with a -26 card.
In this way, With little more to do, Talagan’s man couldn’t make better shots, staying with +2 tied that day, dropping him 22 places, remaining T25 .
Joaco even finished under his compatriot and friend, Mito Pereira, who managed to come back from Saturday and finish the tournament in better shape.
The myth gets better in the end
The other Chilean in competition, Mito Pereira, has improved considerably from Saturday. That of Pirque raised its level and managed to advance four places, finishing the AT&T Byron Nelson in T17.

already played, He pushed harder in an attempt to generate accurate shots and that led to him birdying five more at flags 10, 12, 14, 15 and 18. A solitary bogey at 16 tarnished his performance somewhat in the second part of the final round. .
A return that did not allow him to dream of the crown, but which helped the national golfer to endure the bitter pill on Saturday and to remain with a positive feeling for the future.
