The last stop of the Florida Swing is here, as the PGA Tour is in Palm Harbor, just outside Tampa, for this week’s Valspar Championship at Innisbrook Resort’s Copperhead Course.
Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas headline the field while Sam Burns is looking to win his third straight Valspar title.
Spieth, a past champion of this event (2015), is coming off back-to-back solid outings after missing the weekend in LA — T-4 at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and T-19 at the Players.
With many of the world’s best on the sidelines this week thanks to the Valspar’s location on the schedule, Sunday may be a life-changing moment for someone in the field.
