This year's tournament is an eagerly awaited chapter in the PGA Tour, promising golf of the highest quality.

For golf enthusiasts and those who appreciate the skill and strategy of the game, the Valspar Championship represents a pinnacle of competitive golf, set against the backdrop of one of the tour's most challenging courses.
