BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – Marco Dawson finished with a 5th place finish Sunday for the PGA Tour 3M Championship at TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, Minnesota. 

Dawson had a solid day on the green with 5 birdies and only one bogey, which was good for a 4-under on the day and 13-under for the tournament.

However, it was Kenny Perry‘s day as he held off the rest of field to win the championship by four strokes at 18-under.

Dawson, who won the 2015 Senior British Open Championship the previous weekend, finished with 15 birdies and 2 bogeys on the weekend.
