And Denver-area resident Jim Knous tied for fourth in the Web.com Tour’s Utah Championship in Farmington after leading going into the final round.

Jobe, who finished fifth in the U.S. Senior Open at The Broadmoor two weeks ago, continued his stellar player in senior majors. He’s now competed in a dozen such events since 2016 and owns eight top-10 showings and seven top-5s.

Jobe was tied for the lead with three holes left in his round Sunday at the Senior Players, but finished two strokes behind Vijay Singh and Jeff Maggert, who played off for the title, with Singh winning.

Jobe, who lived in Colorado for 29 years, went 67-67-70-66 for an 18-under-par 270 total. He moved up to No. 15 on this year’s PGA Tour Champions money list with $605,613.

Meanwhile, Knous posted his best finish ever on the Web.com Tour with his fourth-place showing on Sunday.

Knous set the 54-hole scoring record for the Utah Championship by posting scores of 65-64-62. But the Colorado School of Mines golfer couldn’t get his putter working on Sunday and shot a 72 for a 21-under-par 263 total. That left him three strokes behind winner Cameron Champ.

Despite a final-hole bogey, Sunday’s showing was worth $30,800 for Knous.

Even closer to Colorado, the Wyoming State Open wrapped up on Sunday in Cheyenne, and though Colorado PGA professional Geoff Keffer took home the top professional prize of $10,000, he finished runner-up in the event to amateur John Murdock, a University of Wyoming golfer from Laramie.

Murdock shot rounds of 63-67-65 at Airport Golf Course, giving him a winning total of 15-under 195. Keffer, a five-time Colorado PGA Player of the Year, finished a stroke behind after going 61-66-69.
