Knapp and Frankie Capan III finished in solo third place at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans following a two-under 70 in the final round.
It was interesting to see how this duo would work this week after Knapp was in the mix of a pretty decent season, while Capan had really struggled in his rookie campaign. This format seemed to neutralize everything and both players were able to really feed off each other. The duo came to the par-3 17th tied for the lead, but Capan hit a poor tee shot and left them in the water and scrambling for bogey. Capan redeemed himself with a nice bogey putt, but they were unable to take advantage of the par-5 18th to throw anything at the leaders of Andrew Novak and Ben Griffin, who made birdie at 17. Knapp still has to be happy with the way he played and he now moves up to 40th in the FedExCup standings. He will tee it up at the Byron Nelson next week as well.
