Shane Lowry began daydreaming Sunday morning about lifting the Bridgestone Invitational trophy on the 18th green. He would quickly return to reality because he knew there was a long day ahead with world-class players all around him. Turns out he was right. He just never could have dreamed how it unfolded.

Not to be overlooked were two huge par saves that carried him to a 4-under 66 and a two-shot victory over Bubba Watson.

Watson also closed with a 66. Jim Furyk and Justin Rose, who shared the 54-hole lead, fell behind on the front nine and couldn't catch the 28-year-old Irishman. Both closed with a 72 and tied for third.
