The wins that came so quickly – the quartet of trophies that stamped
his name as one of the rising stars of American golf – had begun to
collect dust. The wait for trophy No. 5, a gentle foot-tapping that
stretched back to January 2015, had become more and more frustrating. “It’s like, all right, what do I need to do to get over this hump?” Reed said. The answer, it turned out, was patience. Through the sea of runner-ups and ties for 10th, Reed stayed the
course and remained committed to a game plan that had proven so
successful in the past. That patience was rewarded Sunday at The Barclays, where Reed rallied for a one-shot victory that turned a solid year into something much more palatable. Reed had plenty to play for entering the first postseason event. There was the trophy, sure, as well as many FedEx Cup points which vaulted him to the #1 position ahead of OWGR #1 Jason Day. He has clinched a spot on the US Ryder Cup team - currently ranked #4. How will season end for the youg Reed? Send your picks to the
