In just his second start as an official member of the PGA Tour, Matt McCarty has claimed his first trophy. Reaching 23 under for the tournament, McCarty put some ground between himself and the field across four days in Utah to achieve a three-stroke victory over Stephan Jaeger at the 2024 Black Desert Championship.

McCarty, a 26-year-old from Scottsdale, Arizona, won his fourth golf tournament in the past three months by outlasting several PGA Tour veterans to win the inaugural Black Desert Championship Sunday afternoon in southern Utah.

McCarty won three times in a span of six events on the Korn Ferry Tour to earn a promotion to the PGA Tour and in just his second start in the big leagues, he returned to the winner’s circle with a 72-hole total of 23-under 261 and a three-shot victory over Stephan Jaeger.
