Valspar Leaderboard Full Of Interesting Storylines...Really!
/While there was plenty of social media swooning over last weekend's WGC Mexico City Championship leaderboard, I couldn't get as excited on a no-cut, limited field rich-get-richer event on a claustrophic course. Yet Sunday's Valspar Championship intrigues me far more given that some life-changing opportunities exist for all of the leaders.
Third round leader Adam Hadwin has been knocking on the door all year, including a 59 in the Careerbuilder Challenge. His first PGA Tour win and a spot in the Masters seems appropriate.
Patrick Cantlay, playing on a medical exemption and needing a big check, could rekindle a once-promising career derailed by injury and tragedy. Ryan Lavner with Cantlay's story.
Dominic Bozelli, who will need a brilliant final round and some leader stumbling, would make a massive career leap with a win after his share of mini-tour time.
And lurking is the President's favorite tour pro, whose win last year at Houston might pale in comparison to getting a post-round victory call from Donald Trump. Bob Harig with Jim Herman's story.
