Nick Taylor showcased his clutch performance at the WM Phoenix Open, birdying the 18th hole three times to secure a playoff victory. However, following this triumph, he endured a challenging period of 23 starts over 11 months without a top 10 finish.

Despite this inconsistency, the 36-year-old Canadian has amassed an impressive collection of trophies, with one win in each of the last three years and a total of five victories. Taylor's most recent triumph came unexpectedly when he chipped in for eagle on the final hole, followed by a birdie to secure a playoff win against Nico Echavarria.
