Billy Horschel fired an electrifying final round of eight-under 64 to win his first PGA Tour event at the Zurich Classic on Sunday, edging out D.A. Points by one shot in a thrilling duel.

A flurry of birdies vaulted Horschel to the top of the leaderboard in the middle of the round. After four consecutive pars to start, he birdied the par-four fifth hole, and after another par, rattled off a whopping six consecutive birdies.

Points was playing alongside Horschel, though, and certainly didn't go quietly. He posted a seven-under 65 of his own in the final round, striking it just as brilliantly as his fellow competitor and putting phenomenally.
